    Oh, it's not that they aren't out there. I was pm'ing a dude in CA about one, he just probably forgot and I haven't been "chomping at the bit" for it with the m20 car requiring some of my attention. I'm getting back on to the muscle car for a bit until I have a b27 bottom to go into the vert. I'll likely be getting ADHD with the wrenching throughout the winter. Sounds like a nightmare.

    Wow I never knew it would be that tough. Have you check back with bimmerguy2002 to see if he got some?

    It's one of the last puzzle pieces. I still need one.

    ^Lol bro.

    Hey also, I got my 1987 m20b25 harness today as well. So I'm just missing the b35 harmonic ballancer and this somebitch should be nearly running…

    …WTFuck?…

    I think I'm gonna take the duals and merge them to a single 3" right after it goes to the center of the car. I was gonna just use the m20 stuff, but I can budget in a few hundy for a muffler and some pipe.

    On the O2 sensor bung, I think I'm gonna try and place it very near where the factory one would have been. I have an extra bung from when I bought the air/fuel gauge for my m20 car so I'm just gonna use it somehow. I haven't quite figured that part out though. I'll post up some pics when it's complete.

    Looks good!

    Are you planning on running the stock m20 cat and exhaust?

    What is your plan for the o2 sensor position?

    Down pipes (free ones):

    Alright fellers, I got some shit did today. Got the new timing guides in and the timing chain on and timed. Timing cover and such. Then I started on the downpipes because I just recently acquired my exhaust manifolds. Boy does that rear manifold dump out right near the ole firewall. No biggie, because the m20b25 exhaust I had laying about has the damn same flanges and the perfect bend to tame that little bastard, flex joint n' all. So I got the forward most one finished and pointing toward the rear of the car and now to do the rearward one then mate up the rest of an m20 setup and call it free...er, I mean done. I reckon I should button up the driveshaft and carrier first, but anyway, made some progress.

    Thank you for the kind words, man.
