      Headgast came to a stop when i didnt have the right size allen for the dizzys rotor. so lame.... just need the timing cover and exhast mani off. then cleaning. good thing im knocking this out now. saw some milky crap on the inside of my vc.

      wish i had more time to get the head checked out but i got work wensday and in sfv now. looks like the thermostat got stuck and with to much pressure popped the hg. we'll see in the morning.

        Came out a bit too dark but it looks better in pictures (Don't ask why my lenses come off so easily)

        Ain't no cool story without pix:

        Old yellow on the left highbeam:



        New Yellow:



        This idea...

        looked better on paper

        Bro, I can always count on you for the coolest stories. :up:

          Sup dudes!

          More E30 progress:
          -Finished scraping off that nasty water pump gasket
          -Replaced the cam flange o-ring and camshaft oil seal
          -Put the camshaft, crankshaft, and intermediate shaft sprockets back on
          -Took the oil pan off and scraped away the rock hard oil pan gasket. Hammer + putty knife ftw

          Next up:
          -CCV pipe o-rings
          -Water pump
          -Timing belt
          -Strip off everything else that won't be reused

          Everything takes 5x as long because the engine is such an oily mess. :hitler:

            ouch. I wasn't however broke when the wheels were originally up for sale, and was
            ready to go and buy them, but you rushed it. either way, shits past, and im happy
            with the sets of wheels i have now.
