    28º nice. I read that the factory angle is 30º; same as the Dodge/Chrysler sixes which was purported to be for hood clearance.

    WTF. Did I just use "purported" in a sentence?

            I am of course going against the grain, but I like the gloss paint. With that being said, I would stick with the satin as everyone that has seen that satin on your car likes it a lot and it has more of that milatery look that you wanted.

            You really can't go wrong either way. Plus no one will be able to catch you while on the road to actually see the color lol.

              Small update. My heat shielding came in yesterday so I applied some of it today. I would have done more but I am prepping a car for delivery to a new owner and I picked up two new cars in the last 48 hours, a 1987 325i sedan and a 1985 524td. I am thinking 324td! What do you think?

                    This car is pure sexiness! Nice work!

                    Will the coil end up being relocated to the body?

                      Thanks. And no the coil will be there until mega squirt. It is the best way to keep the coil wire from getting burnt up going over or under the down pipe

                            looks like a vulva.

                              ^This car is far from a vulva, thank you very much! :)

                              The intercooler is from a mid 90's Volvo 960 turbo

                                Thanks to Jim325 for coming up today and lending a hand! I have never ever ever ever seen a power steering pump as clean as mine is now thanks to him. And he reenergized my motivation for this build by taking me for a ride in his underwear staining bad ass Turbo M30 swapped e30. OH MY GAWD!!!

                                Anyways. With his help we knocked out a few items on my to-do list including: mounting the power steering pump and alternator, cleaning and resealing the 2.93S diff, reinstalling diff, replacing the CSB and then reinstalling the drive shaft and heat shields. We also got the shifter linkage in place. Oh and test fitted the wastegate.

                                Picture time
