          Uhh.. make sure that the front sensor is for the m50(for the DME) and the back one m20(for the temp gauge).

                Well.......... I got my transmission, Driveshaft, clutch petals and such. i didnt have time to grab a LSD but i will next time. i am getting so excited. the only thing i need now is a LSD and Brake Booster.

                I also got a Head Gasket Kit and bottom end kit. all new nessisary stuff.

                obnly question i got is does the e28 535i motor mounts have 2 different sides? i think i got 2 of the same part number and i dont know if thats going to work.

                            Looks CLEAN!

                            Now paint that valve cover BLACK.

                            I hope you didn't spray any water into that vacuum outlet on the valve cover.

                            Keep up the good progess.:up:
