Continental Overhaul Kit (timing belt, tensioner, sticker)
Graf Water Pump w/ gasket
Tensioner Spring
Camshaft seal
Front crankshaft seal
Intermediate Shaft seal
Int. Shaft cover gasket
Continental V-belt kit (ps belt, a/c belt, alternator belt)

$125 picked up, $135 shipped.

If I might make a couple suggestions to upgrade your Kit. View it with a grain of salt.

#1 Drop the front crankshaft seal, Int shaft seal and shaft cover gasket. 95% of these guys are not going to have the tools to remove the crank hub bolt (300+ft lbs), int shaft pulley, remove the front housing, change the seals and install it back in the car, successfully resealing the front oil pan with silicone successfully. No, these parts are simply getting tossed into a box full of other useless parts, or the trash.

#2 Replace the water pump with a OEM Salari brand. The graf pump is low quality and it will leak sooner then later. The OEM brand has a composite impeller which is lighter and more efficient. I run these in SpecE30 sprint engines and 25hr Enduro engines without failure.

#3 I find alot of timing belts missing the tensioner pin and spring, so if your going to include the spring, at least include the pin with it to make it useful.

4# If your going to include the camshaft seal, at least include the cam seal housing o-ring with it. And provide a OEM BMW seal.

This will make a much better kit even if you have to raise the price a few dollars to include the good parts.

I hope you don't find this thread crapping, just trying to offer a positive suggestion to improve your product.

Thank you for the suggestion Robert, I will definitely consider that especially coming from you. I will put together another kit based on that and hopefully more DIY guys will order.
