The complete repair, rebuild, repaint, and v8 swap of my early model sedan

[Denny]

Just finished re-reading it all over again! ...So much damn WIN in this thread...

Here's another video, starting from 5mph in 2nd gear.




And another. My car left lane, my buddies s52 e30 vert right lane. It was an even start, video was just a bit late in starting. We did 3 races, same result each time. Camera car is an e34 M5. Once the M5 gets above 100mph or so, I don't pull on it very much. It's an impressive car!

Huge. 1/4 mile trap speed went from 102-103 to 107-108.

Nice!

Dang man that this is fast and Damn cool. How's the handling compared to the m20?

From the video it looks a little over 5 second 0-60? Thats pretty awesome

I didn't launch the car, I slowly accelerated to 5mph or so then rolled into the throttle. Should be around 4.5, given the 13.1@108 1/4 mile.
