John - no offence taken, I'm starting to understand that the clutter is a positive sign if anything.

So I've went ahead and listed the hardlines over on the FAQ, not sure if there's much market for E30's but we'll see.
Also a little tig love... now to find an excuse to make something.....

I've been looking for a nice VDO Series-one clock to round out my gauge cluster for quite a while and was getting a little discouraged. They've been NLA for a number of years and non-existent on any message board. Called North Hollywood Speedo for some other gauges and asked if they had the little clock hiding away. The gentleman who answered the phone said "well why don't we just make you one? We can make it look extremely close to the original."
Got the gauges yesterday including the little clock and am very very happy. (while their site doesn't list prices, they were less-expensive than egauges when I asked for a quote) Now I'm dusting off the tachometer to send it over to be recalibrated for the M20.
Love the series-one gauges with the silver dollar cluster, but for the moment, here's everything mocked up.
Here are the VDO series-one part numbers if anyone is interested.
OIL PRESSURE 0PSI-80PSI
#350-303 (gauge only) [ohm 10-180]
#360-009 double prong sender 1/8-27 NPT (can tie into 8psi low-pressure warning light)
#555-100463 1/8”-27npt to 1/2” adapter bushing (to mount at remote cooler housing)
OIL TEMPERATURE 120°F - 300°F
#310-3051 (Imperial Kit, includes sender and adapter bush)
CLOCK
#370-301 NoLongerAvailable, special order from North Hollywood Speedometer.

Jalopi..
I don't know but an educated guess would be that they used the guts and face from a different vdo clock.

Just caught up on the progress of the build, looking good!
I picked up an 02 myself, will be giving you a call at IE soon, gotta get some m20 head parts to finish my 2.9L which will now be going into the '70 02.
Do you guys have motor mounts for sale for the swap? also, you gonna use a getrag 260 on either of these? I plan to use the e30 drivetrain.
What do you think your "Strongest small case diff" can handle power wise?
my 2.9L m20 will be turbo'd, so it looks like 2002haus guy's rear subframe is my only option?
Maybe I'll shoot ya a PM with all my questions so I dont flood your build! hah.(SOLD) 1988 327i Build Thread: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=155086
