    No problem, I am the same way. Do you remember what size pipes he ran did he keep it dual. Seemed like you used an entire E36 exhaust from the headers back.

    Did you like the sound? I dont want mine to loud.

    Thanks in advance!

      Yeah basically. It was dual 2.5" tubing. It wasn't loud.

          Yup, I always used Mann, but that was the last time I was going to change the oil before I yanked it out so I just picked up the Fram filter where I was buying oil. I sold the engine to a guy who was going to rebuild it.

                Awesome project! Still runs and drives? Do I dare to ask pictures of hydroboost bomb and reservoir placement?

                  I hope it does. I would take some pictures, but the car was sold. I know some others on the forum are running the hydroboost setup. It's not that hard to install. We had to make a custom bracket to mount the reservoir & bomb, get the high pressure hose lengthened, and modify the linkage to the pedal.
