Slightly Overbuilt E30 2014

no, i'm not sure what they were after. my car is usually in it but since i was planning on doing work on it, it was in the shop. The car inside was just being stored out of the way for a few days. My slicks and skinnies were inside the trailer though, so those might turn up for sale one day.

Leave the guy alone. Sometimes shit just happens.
That's fucking nuts. I'd be just sick to my stomach. What's next solid lifters oversized valves, custom machined intake and exhaust porting? I want more engine porn please!!!!!!!

Fresh head is together, waiting on new lash caps for the solid lifters after initial check with the new fat cat cams. The turbo should be here any day so I can build the new manifold. Waiting and waiting.

Because I didn't have your number to call you for advice.

Why in gods name did you use a set of used stock valves on an engine that you are clearly going balls-to-the-walls with? A couple hundred bucks and you wouldn't have to be re-doing all of this.

The collector have wastegate spots already? That's badass

Made over 1000whp on the dyno, dropped a stock valve and ate the motor.

Small update to the e30 life.
Block is at the machine shop. Waiting to get the turbo back from Comp for upgrades.



this collector is waiting for its brothers to show up.

Jesus. Tapdancing. Christ.

Yea, it was just a random set of stock valves that has seen lots and lots of rpm and rev limit at 8400rpm on hydraulic lifters. They were well passed their intended life span apparently.

That collector is ridiculous.



Congrats on the 4 digit power ! Do you know why the valve gave up?
