A total of 221 cars were built. BMW had already tried to put a V8 in the E36 3-series, but didn't succeed in designing a version which could be built on the regular E36 production line. Alpina did succeed, however the body had to undergo 42 modifications at the BMW factory before the V8 could fit. To make it fit, the engine isn't mounted as usual from below- Alpina had to install it from above. Thw B8 has the same suspension as the B3 3.2 with Bilstein gas-pressure units front and rear. The only difference with B3 3.2 is that the B8 has ASC+T as standard. The front breaks are uprated with custom- made Lucas ventilated discs and special calipers and the rear breaks are from M3. The engine is based on BMW's 4.0 V8 from E34 540i. The biggest difference between the standart engine and Alpina's engine is the displacement. As the BMW V8 engine has Nicasil (and later Alusil) coated bores, the block couldn't
