Any idea what they're lining the up-and-coming magnesium blocked engines with?

I couldn't believe it when I bought an E36 M3Evo engine and found it had an iron block! I know they did it to keep the block size as small as possible, but you try moving one!

If anyone like old cars with big BMW engines, take a look at www.gt6.org.uk
sign the guestbook, you know it makes sense!

LPG is either Butane or Propane or a mixture of the two. It does have an odour, I know since I work LPG. While I cannot say whether they add sulphur or not, it would seam like a strange choice since there has been so much fuss about sulphur levels in petrol and diesel.
