The safety wire makes it so even if the bolts try to rattle loose or back out the wire keep them tied together and if you wrap it right the wire is pulling both the bolts clockwise (tighter) |

LOL I don't think this is 'General' chit chat... :) Following anyways. |
4 Attachment(s) Engine is in the test bay for hopefully the last time. Working on brackets and locations for everything. Also cut up the factory front engine hook and welded it to the dasc support bracket to make a proper front hook. |

OMG I so want a 2002 again.... :( Crying here, I have had two and they have gotten lost along the way... both were 1973 with the round taillights. (And the rust, uggh.) |
Round tail light 2002tii's are getting really pricey |
1 Attachment(s) Speaking of tii's how bout a 2002 tii touring. Came through my shop |
This is going to be an amazing motor. And gorgeous 2002. |
2 Attachment(s) Solved my radiator hose problem, figured that everything else is some sort of fancy pants metal, so why not stainless. |

I guess baur may have done some, we have 2 baurs in the shop for sale. One e30 323i and a e36 318i, but both 2002 tii tourings we have are sun roor cars, and not baur conversions |
1 Attachment(s) And so it begins. Going to body shop to have new sway bar perches put on and then next weekend the swap begins. Oh yeah, and bribing co-workers with beer to help get the engine safely up the back basement stairs. Its 6 steps but want a few spotters anyway |
Did you ever hit the track? |
I took it one night last year, and ran a cobra R and beat him by about a car length. But they were doing a arm drop night and weren't giving out time slips. The guy with the cobra said he runs 12.5s consistently but i dont know what i actually ran. That was when i had the 10psi dasc and 2 kits of nos. I have also run several e90 m3s with that setup and they couldn't hang. |
4 Attachment(s) Finished the oil lines and mounted the pump. I used an old trans mount for it. Seems pretty stable. Also made a quick crate for safe transport to the garage. |
