Thanks try to be different with this swap, seeing that will be the only one in the Midwest with a true M60B44 Hybrid e30 (I think) i ordered my mount arms from garagistic. I will probably try to get those dipped in 24k

Please don't...........

Trust me, you can use that money else where on building your car.

Trust me, you can use that money else where, period.

Dipping motor mount arms, that you're not even going to see anyways, in gold is, frankly, a dumb idea. Please just be kidding.

Swap looks pretty awesome, but skimping on a cheap clutch to dip motor mount arms is daft man! Buy a nice clutch, paint the arms.

Lol yes I love negativity, and I was sleepy when I posted that last one about the mount arms just my imagination taking over.

Fixed.

I will powercoat another set of valve covers mirror finish arab gold, install them on my car, trailer my beautiful garage queen to your house and do a smoky V8 burnout in your driveway.

those gold valve covers are sick!

[driftingminor913]

Don't you dare do such a thing, cause I will come out an watch the burnout...then cry...then go kick my engine off the stand cause its not slaying tires

[driftingminor913]

I just looked at them an added it to my wall art of boxes

[kcdubber]

What did you have done to the heads? Ouch 32 new lifters?

I had then ported to the max mostly intake then exhaust, valve work and the regular stuff for getting heads done. And yeah the lifters that came with the heads where done for :-( so I'm going to buy new ones instead of going JUNKYARDING haha I'm really hoping to get at least 350-370 with a tune "fingers crossed"

The wiki for m60 says the heads are 50-60lbs each?!?!? Is that true? Or did I mis-read something?

The block weighed 25 kg (55 lb),{ and the heads 30 kg (66 lb) each

I feel like that's a exaggerated statement. Cause I carried them into my apartment stacked on each other wrapped up and it felt like 60lbs of aluminum

george - I shipped m62nv heads w/o cams last week and they were about 36-37lbs each.
