    It is worth it, the good assumption about buying classic BMW's is to embrace the risk of potential breakdowns so when it occurs, there wouldn't be no surprises and be positive.

      Ohh there was no surprise here pal! I knew it was a matter of time when. But being broke is being broke no matter how much you think/plan about it. I have only 400 bucks aside for this BS not looking too good atm!

      But hey I took a 1992 500sel to work today w AMG mono's and to tell you the truth its better on my back! :p

              HG and tb/wp do not take four days.

              Rob, if you want I have a 2.7 bottom block you can have and build it up. Its deff going to need to be cleaned and what not. Had about 170k on it before a tb snapped and bent some valves.

                  I do not have any room pal I live in a APT. Also my friends place I have wheels there I cant ask for more then that right now. I am hopping that my bottom is good. Other wise I am junking this motor I think I rather just do that its faster.... But if I had my own space I would pick that up tonight. It would be great after work w a beer or two I would wrench that thing up! hehhehhehehheeh

                    Yes I have as a matter of fact.
                    The second time I pulled the head on my black car I pulled it in two hours on a friday night and disassembled it with my dad, took it to a shop Saturday morning. Had it pressure tested, cleaned, and surfaced. I got it back later that night and then lapped all the valves myself, and reassembled the head. The next day I put it all back together. It ran minus coolant.

                    That is prettymuch a two day process, cause I could have removed the head sat morning and had it assembled in time.

                    Idk why it takes you so long to assemble/reassembled a head.

                              I'm about to go over there and talk to the guy about how they tried to do it... not sure if I should ask for a refund, since they *did* ruin the lockstrip in the process.
