The added stroke is due to a new forged steel crankshaft, though the camshafts were also changed.

Further enhancements include: -An electronically-controlled butterfly valve in the inlet manifold to provide better low-rpm and mid-range power -Bosch Motronic fuel injection for precise metering of the air/fuel mixture -Improved flywheel -Equal length stainless steel headers -Three way ceramic catalysts (similar to those used on the M70 V12 engine) The S38 B36 is rated at 315 hp (DIN) or 310 hp (SAE) at 6,900 rpm and 266 lb/ft of torque at 4,750 rpm.
