      I'm new to the PNW BMW scene, I'm working on a 87 325e, in the parts collecting stage to build a "poor man stroker," I am having a heck of a time finding a M20B25 with harness to scavenge parts off of. mainly looking for a complete 885 head, intake and fuel system, ecu and harness. what salvage yards do us Olympia area people use? I've been to pick a part, and empire (I think it's empire) and all I can find is one parted out 4 door eta....

        I THINK if you remove the ABS module you mess up the brake bias. Mine's disconnected but I left the actual module in there. If I'm incorrect, I'd like to know. Removing the module would make it easier for me to get fresh air...

          The early model came with a built in portioning valve. Get that line and your good.

              Well we've been a business for 17 years and I am a 3rd generation body and paint guy. I've spent a lot of time perfecting my skills and take pride in what I do. We do lots or European cars and spealty cars.

                i think you need to block one of the holes off in the MC and have 2 lines running to the front and the other hole running to the back, from what im finding out.

                  Ok, we're in PDX until about the summer of 2015. May need to get my E30 done before we leave. I'll be in touch for sure. Gotta rebuild
