Alpina B6 3.5 Turbo Tribute

[e30m3s54turbo]

I finally installed m30 in engine bay. Not to happy because I need to hammer a little bit on fire wall. Where head sits. I decided to modify( Good & Tight ) Otis motor mounts. I ended up slotting the motor mounts just like Hartge would do for a m30 or s38 swap. Tomorrow I will beat on the fire wall a little bit more.
I ordered a Alpina sticker in silver. In steed I received a white one. I email the person about it. He replied back saying he was sending silver no charge.
In a month I will be changing it for a real Alpina B10 Biturbo valve cover.

Hi Raul,

I know you have experience with beating up fire walls so I am sure that you will do an excellent job. Things are looking good. What is the new estimate of your completion for this car.

Cheers,

Jim

Yes I do have experience with beating up fire walls. The s38 was Harder to do. I rather not say when. You know I am a Hartge, Alpina and ACS rare parts hoarder. You know it take a the cash from projects.

Thanks, Jim.

Raul what kind of motor mounts are those? Also how many grounds do you have? I ended up having to remove a oil pan bolt and put it on the pan.

Good&Tight motor mount made by Otis.

I will be bolting up at least 3 or 4 ground to the motor.
