    If it's not one thing, it's another. Hope this swap is worth it. I've replaced basically every part you can that's not disassembling the head or rotating assembly. Now it's the eccentric shaft and sensor. Also, designed a mount for using a three chamber Tilton reservoir for brakes and clutch. Strictly because the factory reservoir is NLA.




    The same cats we adopted when I started the body swap.



    And my favorite spray oil to use on the blackstone (available on Amazon)

    Let's see. New coolant tank needed, bigger firewall grommet, room for new air filter and had a batch of stickers made to commemorate to swap.

    You need an additional sticker showing an E9x underneath the Volvo and E30. 😂

    Ok, installed some BC coilovers this weekend (didn't really take pics cause that's pretty saturated out there) and stuffed the trans onto my engine with a single mass flywheel kit. The. Dropped it onto my fancy trolley I made for the guys at Strassen to pull and install E30 stuff once I'm done with it. Can pull assemblies with, or without the subframe. Good for pressure washing or dry ice blasting too.

    Love it, thank you. Unfortunately seems to be about as expensive as any of the 3M versions, most of the stuff I have is time expired aviation crap, either PTFE 3M 5491 (which is flexible and great, except it sticks like hell and the adhesive sometimes separates and stays behind) or the polyester 'green tape' 3M 8992 (doesn't stretch at all, so no compound curves)

    From the pictures, that looks like a nice in-between, which would be way more useful despite the cost lol
    As I get older, I realize there's a trade-off of time or money. These days my time is far more valuable than spending too much for some tape. I understand though. I'm cheap. The main reason I make everything myself.
