Thanks guys!!

Im still on the fence about which M50/S50 motor i want, either one built from the ground up or a strong donor.

She'll be back on the track in August.

I'm trying to get out to some meets/events while shes still looking pretty before she gets beat up at the track haha anyone know of any near San Jose??

Post #94 is definitely a game changer

[ncrmtrsprtsE30]

hell yeah you guys just wait.. im going all out on this thing..

[ncrmtrsprtsE30]

I started tearing the motor out today... im actually suprised on how easy it was to get to everything..


the motor was actually pretty clean

all the bolts came off smooth, nothing broke, only looks like the front timing chain seal is leaking and the oil pan gasket.. simple things and i could hear a vacuum leak when i was running it. stay tuned guys!

ALSO if anyone is in the south bay san jose near evergreen this friday and sunday i am going to finish pulling the motor and could use an extra set of hands! PM me for the details!

Oh I am so excited for this!

People really like the stock 7 series wheels.
These are the popular ones that people fill and drill to 4x100
You can probably sell the wheels and profit on this car.

The V8 will be fun! Can't wait to see this in action.
