I don't really care for mpg or highway cruising so I'll probably stick with the same diff I have now, 3.64 and go with a 5 speed since they are more common/cheaper/lighter etc :)Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

I'll see how it works and go from there, like i said i don't care about mpg or cruising rpm. I may go with 3.25 again if 3.64 turns out too short for the events i attend.Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

Engine is out of the parts car...
I'll start a new thread covering the engine re-seal etc.. I noticed the back of the heads have round warranty seals/stamps... is this normal or is this an indication of a replacement heads?
Where is it? Oh there it is!

Basically when over heated the glue melts and the stamps move / fall off, warrenty void.

Cannot believe that you're doing this!
You already have one of the nicest early models on our board, it will be even cooler to see another V8 E30 stateside..
Need to rename your car again ;)
