M50 NV Block Off Plate

Billet E36 M50 Non-VANOS Block Off Plates

Precision-machined from solid billet aluminum for a clean, leak-free seal on your M50 non-VANOS build.

Stop worrying about flimsy stamped covers and cheap castings. These block off plates are CNC-machined from a solid billet of [6061-T6] aluminum, so every plate has tight tolerances, flat sealing surfaces, and a perfect fit on your E36 M50 non-VANOS engine.

Choose Your Finish

Raw uncoated aluminum
Clean, machined finish, ready to install as-is. A good pick if you want the classic billet look, plan to polish it, or want to paint or powder coat it to match your engine bay.

Type III hard anodized
A tough, wear-resistant coating that is far harder than standard anodizing. It adds serious protection against corrosion, heat, and scratches, and gives a durable dark finish that holds up to years of engine bay abuse.
