100% Agree

I tried taking one mirror apart, and it ended up breaking, so I decided to go with black and no disassembly.

Ran the fuel lines.

Started hooking up all the wiring, for the engine, I'll get more pictures when I get more of it finished.

Still have a few things left to finish up on the IHKS, and don't have more photos, but I'm almost done. Made templates for all the new foam.

at what rpm does the stock valve train start to have issues in an m20?

From what I've read, around 7,000 RPM.

Thanks man, your build is coming along nicely as well.

I'm a little jelly of all those new interior pieces. I'm planning on using old items that I'll do my best to bring back to life.

8,000 RPM, yeah... yeah... ;)

Haha I wish I had your paint work!

Sounds like fun!! It's interesting I have had an S65 for so long I forget that 68-7400 RPM is very high for most cars.

m20 at 7400 will be nuts. Make sure to bang the limiter in the sound clip you post

Haha

I'm actually a little apprehensive spinning the engine that high, but I'll make sure you get a clip.
