    My buddy Chris and I did it the old fashion way. What did you guys use and any links to buy one. I am going to order a new e32 750il master.

    I need a new master cylinder brake. I tried a few times to to bleed the brake system. The brakes feel to soft.
    The shift rod clip must of come off or forgot to put it on. I ordered a other shift rod from ECS Tuning. I did get a chance to move it in it power. The clutch felt very aggressive. I like it how quick it engaged!!!

    Still have more things to do.......

    I found a really nice photo from Bimmer Forums with an engine bay shot of a 3.7 ACS M30. Granted that was an E34 S5 bay. I will see if I can mount it in a similar fashion. S5 bay. S3 body and interior.
    Yes it is true about about my tuner stash....

    I add some protection to oil feed return line and for front oil cooler lines.
    I also chased my down my fried wire under dash.

    It better to keep heat away from coil.

    It is for heat protection from turbo heat.

    What tuners? Are you asking about AC Schnitzer?

    I see you have your spark plug wires in a sheathing.. is it for heat or touch protection?

    Do you know how the (of course you do) tuners relocated the coil?

    This came in from Poland. It is a early e34 Alpina B10 Biturbo m30 valve cover. Alpina m30 valve cover was made for the m30. Alpina never made a m20.

    That sounds great. What intake manifold are you using, does it face out the other way like the SA 333i?
    Thanks...

    The intake is the same as for Alpina B 2.8, 3.5 and South Africa 333i.
    On my 1984 Alpina B6 2.8 had the same intake.
