      I'd get it. Provides some use full tips but you are pretty far so you may not need it. I am how ever 90% certain the capacity of the m20 rad isn't enough. Unless you be upgraded your m20 rad then idk

        I'll just grab a mishimoto E36 later, for now I'll run the M20 rad.
        Just need to grab a hose barb so I can finish my expansion tank hose, run a couple wires and then it will start:) its full on compcams 15w50 break in oil.

            Lucky you. I'm waiting on my b35 intake manifold then I can finish up the motor harness and get it plugged in to the ecu I was lucky enough to find someone to make me m30b35 to early model harness adapter over on mye28. I gotta make mounting brackets so i get the rad secured in and then shorten my hoses as they are also way to long to fit the mishimoto radiator.

            Tacoman- Kamotors is some how getting this motor to go in so perfectly idk haha hasnt had to swap radiators or shorten his shift linkage. I on the other hand have had a hell of a time haha

              This tends to happen with most endeavors on the e30s and Ka, I cant think of any other instances of this but there has been alot where things and idea happen to work out perfectly.

                    NICE! Also wanted to throw my hat in the ring as one of those people that is using a completely stock e34 coolant hose setup without shortening and my shifter linkage is unmodified and works as if the factory did it that way. Looking good man keep it up and make everyone jealous.

                          I just dont get it....for me without shortening my arm and linkage I had no bottom gears. r,1,3,5 would have been all.

                              Wait do you have a mishimoto m20 radiator?
                              early and late model m20 radiators are different.
