    I want one, but just the coil cover, not the injector/harness rail.

                Thanks! Reggie's Motorworks did the engine bay shaving and even ran the driver's side engine harness out through the fender. The shaving was all done welds and plugs instead of bodyfiller.

                The car is having a custom exhaust done right now that is also looking spectacular...just taking a long time.

                    So what upper rad hose are YOU using with the M42 radiator? I'm using a Napa replacement for the stock E34 525i, cut down.

                      It's actually really ghetto... Part M42 upper and part M42 lower, spliced together in the middle. Looking for a better solution, but this works for now.

                        Try what I did, seems to work fine. Stock replacement hose for a '92 525i from Napa (or anywhere else, really). Cut it down right, fits just fine.

                            You should be able to keep your stock M20 radiator, no issues there. The main reason a lot of people like myself go with the M42 radiator is because of the built-in expansion tank, makes the engine bay look much cleaner.

                              Not to mention the bleed screw, makes it a fuckin charm to bleed, super easy

                                now im kind of tempted to get one but i have to save as much money as possible because im sure there is still a lot i have to buy for the swap to be completed. the motor i have has 180k, do you guys think i should rebuild since im planning on turbo'n it after??
