*!Build of the year candidate!* Strange PNW Build: E30+Volvo
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)
Just went back and read through the N52 swap section of your thread Adam - awesome fab work as always, and it must be great to have it back on the road now. The N52 / GS6 combination should be quite the transformation vs. the M20 / Getrag you had before.

It's so much better. Sounds amazing too. Reminds me of an L24 w/individual carbs. I will FOR SURE need an LSD too. 😆
Sounds great - I love the GS6 transmission in my e92. A LSD would be essential I think. When I did my M30 swap the open diff made the car a bit of a handful - it was fun but felt like a swapped car. Once I fitted the LSD it drove like it came that way from the factory. You have a lot more power than I do!
Since the party never stops, I'm piggybacking onto Hoveringuy's EPAS and getting power steering finally. I bought some parts, made a jig for the factory (early) column and started chopping things up.
Made a little fixture to hold the spring pre-load at the right length.

First bracket version. Second one is waiting to be cut
