        the tool to do the job costs more than buying a spare M20

          hahaha True! requires a special tool for this job and an assortment of shims. All of which are a lot more money than they should be.

                LOL it's been a whole hour and a half. Try Dick Chiang from Dynospot as well.

                  Yes. Give JP at A1 imports a call. He is in San Rafael.
                  a1importsautoworks.com (415) 2561949
                  1575 Francisco BLVD San Rafael CA 94901
                  JP has worked on all kinds of BMWs and done custom s14 builds so he knows what he is talking about. Friendly and they have a great dog ;)
                  Second choice (a bit closer to you) is Sean at Casey MotorSports in Petaluma. They have experience with s14 engines and one of their techs as experience with M1 engines as well. Great place.
                  (707) 938-2002 <-- coincidence on last four digits? hahaha
                  701 Petaluma CA 94952

                  Good luck!

                      Oh shit lol. I miss read San Jose and switched it in my mind with Santa Rosa. I'm so fuckin dyslexic sorry. lol
                      But those are both great shops. I can't think of any BMW specific shops near you...
                      There is Bavarian Professionals in Berkeley but that's also a bit far I guess.
