More on the VK56


This is the VK56 we'll be putting in the Rolls. Internally, it's been modified in three ways: Forged Pistons, Rods, and it's been Ported and Polished. Externally, though, there's a whole lot of work that went into it. All of the accesories are from the Rolls/BMW V12; AC compressor for the climate control to work properly, PS pump 'cause it also controls the ride control, and the Alternator just for fun.


The VK56, like the VQ35, has a cam angle sensor and a crank angle sensor. We didn't really like that look, so we plugged it up.


And we put a custom Cam Angle Sensor sourced from various Nissan parts. Without giving too much away, here's what we did.
