A v12 r107 is up there too, one of our members actually swapped it (I cant remember off the top of my head, begins with R and the car is named Sampson IIRC). I remember seeing it at a gtg years back. These 107s just ooze class.

I'm guessing that would be the 6L M120. I think it was Big Swede here who years ago would quietly rave about the surprising acceleration of his S600. He told a story of a guy who brought one to a local amateur drag race and blew off all challengers while running the AC. In what looked like a family sedan.
The BMW S38B36, the version that found its way to our shores in the early 90s M5 is an unusual combo of refined engineering and naked hot roddery. Has a really bad look to it also which is, of course, very important. I've read of it referred to as the last genuine racing engine that BMW sold to the general public.
