      Cool. I think you owe Adam the 2.93lsd it came with in payment for the lost window strip tool lol. But seriously, he needs a new 2.93. And I need his 3.25 for my swap.

          at that many miles it could just be you poped the head gasket. my 325e had a ping, sounded like a knock, once the gasket was pulled i found a huge crack. problem was the huge gap in compression on #6, new gasket = no more ping. have fun with that 4.10 should be quick a quick car.
