    Thanks! I had the skins made by a forum member and I put them on a set of sport seats I had laying around. Honestly wasn't too hard to do, taking the old skins off was a pain though.

      why is the head casting showing AMC on the side. never seen this before. Is it an aftermarket head?

                weird, I've never seen an m5x AMC head before!

                Did you take any pics of the ports by chance?

                      ECS Tuning have them listed as available on their site:$1507



                      Great work on the car! Makes me want to fix the quirks with mine (just small things... needs a new left rear wheel bearing at the moment).

                        Well things might be taking an interesting turn. I messaged them asking is they made heads for 1997 m3 in the US market. This was the response I got this morning "unfortunately we do not produce this reference.

                        Please, do not hesitate in contact us in a future if anything else is required.
                        We are at your disposal. "

                        So I broadened my question, waiting for a response.

                        Here's the block and the engine did have the s52 mani and aluminum oil housing.

                              1989 325i coupe

                              Bought the car around September of 2014 after about a year of searching.....didn't have to go far and drove it home about a hour later.

                              Car had minimal rust and from my understanding was from one of the Carolinas. Needed some minor tweaks here and there but seemed to be a great car. Started making a parts list and my money started to fly away.

                              Starting from the front:
                              Yellow fogs
                              HIDs all around
                              New roundels
                              Renown wheel
                              BFI knob
                              Lots of radio and dash work
                              Motorsport carpets
                              Euro trim
                              IS lip and skirts
                              Keyless
                              And tons of small OEM stuff
                              Yada yada yada....


                              Radio was lots of fun, gotta love a good hack job! Big shoutout to member: Zinoberrot and his thread on the RMT.








                              Suspensions was next with some coils and a front end refresh. Obviously had to get rid of the style 5's...shittzz played out. Paint was next decided to lay it and not spray it. Was hoping for something close to calypso but it turned out to be a little lighter...oh well.










                              This is where I'm at now.










                              Big things to come...
