You can get coil-overs from ground-control, but basic suspension could be found on bmw2002.com (ireland engineering) , bmpdesign.com, and turnermotorsports.com .

But sounds like your on the right track

yeh i need suspension parts front end is knocking will overhaul the whole front end once engine is out
also do i keep the stock lsd or do i uprage to a 3.73 or bigger????
i am going to try to get 350rwhp is that hard to get on these engines????

IMO 350whp and up, I'd stay with the 2.93Lsd, which I belive your car already has.. Like any engine thats properly built, 350whp is realistic. Even for an M20.. All ya need is money and time. Good Luck

You'll need to upgrade the clutch from the oem one.

What are you plans for the head gasket? You shouldn't have any trouble with a oem head gasket and arps but if you want it to be really solid you should o ring the block.

350whp is starting to push it on the stock pistons, just make sure you have a good tune. Maybe think about having a pump and race gas map.

[ky325es]

i will get mls headgasket
new racing main bearing and rod bearings and
will do piston rings while taking everything out

i was thinkin about sachs stage 3 clutch

Sounds like you know what you want. What are you going to do for tuning?

[ky325es]

miller performance chip cant you do a tune on that???
if not then i have to use megasquirt
