    320 Miles On The New Engine.

    And she's running great! You'll also notice my new plate, yes it's Halston approved.

          More Pictures! New engine or rebuilt old one? Just curious if the guy you sold it to before "did" something to it?

              This car is up and running great. I was behind him on the on ramp for about 4 seconds...then it was as if he had disappeared into the horizon

                He definitely did. I was told the engine had a blown head gasket. Turned out to be a cracked head. Coolant had been mixing in the oil so long that it destroyed the bearings and crank itself. Pretty shitty since the seller is supposed to be a big time mechanic in PA. Sooooo I ended up doing a full rebuild on a 10,000 mile engine.

                Engine specs:
                Super Eta pistons/rods
                Eta crank
                IE crank scraper
                ARP main bolts
                ARP rod bolts
                Port/polished 885 head
                Reground turbo cam
                IE heavy duty rockers
                ARP head studs
                Thick OEM BMW headgasket
                Turbo!!!

                  Engine building and cylinder head work credit all goes to my very good friend Shant. His username is Myster-e here.

                            i like them silver because it contrasts with the chrome kidneys and it also shows that it's turboed and says "come try me"
