Meet "Blue Nose" M62b44 swap (Pic Heavy)

[DIIRTY-30]

Small little update;

Degreased the block and removed the rear coolant cross over pipe. Also went ahead and test fit Garagistic's exhaust mani's and mounts. Quality fit & work def recommend them.

Needless to say I'm impressed with how clean the inside is; along with the valves looking down from the intake manifold area. Not sure if its worth keeping the m62 heads w/dual vanos or just doing my original plan of m60 heads.

Anyone down to chime in and drop some pennies?




Side note; wire wheeled the radiator support in prepping for a new one; PO beat the shit outta mine and since I'm most likely gonna be solo dropping the motor in.





Also went ahead and put all the exterior pieces back on along with the subframe and struts.

Guess the oil pan gasket isn't the only thing being replaced on the m20 anymore...




OOPS.

Any updates on either of the cars?

My cirrus I need to start the oil pan gasket after the weekend. Got a few goodies on order. Winds are changing direction.

Nice car man, you have patience.
Is that normal for IS skirt front piece to hang like that?

When I was test fitting something the tire knocked it off, so........... zipties.

I'm going to have to pull the front fenders and etc off again. When the time comes I'll make a better permanent solution.

Well done sir!! I like the way you pay attention to all the details!!
Please share more info about ur side marker. I want them so bad to go with euro trim

Sidemarkers are a custom tidbit that a buddy makes. No idea what his plans are with them. If he is going to sell them, i'll be in contact with you.

WOW bro! Good to see this is all put together now! I remember seeing it in person as the first few pix! GREAT WORK!!

Thanks Ben, took my ass long enough!

what did you shoot with? body and lens specs please

5dmk2 think I shot this with my 24-70L

whats tire size is that?
is that 225/40?

205/40 front and 45 rear. Wish i had 225's or 245's eventually when I go wider and build up the motor.

Your car looks amazing Danny!! Many props to you and your eye for details....

Thank you! Couldn't had done it without the help of your brother! Can't wait to see how the shark comes out.

Don't get me wrong, I like this^ photo or your car in the process of being put together with the M20 super imposed in the back ground in your signature. But considering it is done and it turned out as awesome as it did, why not update that signature pic?

Hasn't really been on any list or bothered me really. I'll ask my roommate to do it sometime, he loves doing that shit.
