      I find that L-Jetronic, even compared to my M20B20 with Motronic is a bit sluggish. Obviously there is a lot more power/torque on tap but it feels a little more delayed to pick up. Apparently there are decent gains to be had by just swapping to 325i throttle body and Motronic. Bit of a mess sorting out the body loom -> Engine loom though.

      i just want to finish the body work and interior before i start doing anything else.

              some more updates.

              removed all the old tint from glass.
              smoked the headlight,fog lights and turn signals.
              had all the glass ceramic tinted.
              had all glass installed,waiting for the chrome windshield moldings to come in.
              had the headliner installed.

              car is very dusty but starting to look like a real car again.

              C&Cs always welcome!
