      haha yes!

      true story: my good friend is one of 6 boys, he is the second to the youngest. The youngest one got the brunt of the teasing and torture from the older bros. Well, he is in a 80s hair band and has long glorious hair and the rest are bald.

      Its a beautiful sight seeing him at their family functions. 6 bald heads (his dad is bald too) and then his long ass hair

      look up Diamond Lane and he is their lead man

              Can vouch. We had two cars with Bimmerheads' heads, m42 and m20, (installed by buds and I no less) make it over 3k miles in 7 days this summer in some very strenuous conditions this summer to e30 picnic. Along with many more happy and reliable miles before and since.

              There's no reason to go to anyone else in Los Angeles! :up:

                    There's no way I can answer such a question. Every build is different. I also don't know if you're talking about a M10 or a S54. Either way, this thread isn't the place for engine build quotes. ;)

                        I and some friends have used Vellio's in Redondo. They did work on my head, and then 2 months later my engine blew up, but... correlation ≠ causation I would go back just because they're local to me and they must be doing something right to still be in business :o

                        They have general pricing guides on their website; you can check boxes among different build levels to get a fairly accurate price. bimmerheads.com I know this only cuz I like to dream, one day...
