      Looks great though. Gotta admire your aspiration for cleanliness - gonna hurt to see it dirty after a couple weeks of driving, I'm sure.
      The exhuast manifolds are only temporary, and even if i painted them the rust will just eat to the surface again.

      Yes its the same head, I tore it down, and did a port/polish on it. Its great now.

      I will pressure wash the engine bay often, that will keep it plenty clean. I dont have to worry about grease and grime as the engine is all resealed.

        I am going to sneak out to Corvailis and bring a bunch of Q-tips and dip them in motor oil... then stick them in obscure places in your engine bay...

        muwahahahaha :twisted:
        Below the radar...

          Looking at that picture makes me think, how hard is it to swap an alternator in an e30? Can you actually pull it off without removing the whole engine?

                Of course you can swap a alternator without removing the engine... thats the silliest thing ive ever heard....
                What was, dodge colt? - I think it was rabbit body with a dodge 4 banger - you had to drop the engine a few inches to change the plugs....

                that engineer shold have been shot..

                  Interesting, I had no clue and didnt bother looking to see. I need to get a new alternator.
