I *think* you should be able to use the oil cooler from an E30 325is. It's thread compatible, but I don't know about other fitment issues. I'm going to give...

If you can try a hotter spark, say nology wires and an MSD box, that might give you some more kick, also try and camber it up, even more handeling. Blake ... ...
Hi Robert -- An LSD is a big advantage for a race car. I'd strongly suggest looking at something like that. It really helps get the power down. If the car...
M42 is a different beast all together. completely different head design thus different manifold. you may be able to do something with the M42 as it is similar...
I didn't know that. Freaking awesome. So the 1.9L M44 head is the same, therefore, would those headers and everything else work on my head to? Thanks for that...
I've got a complete M42 drive train (radiator to differential, both subframes, brakes, harnesses) for sale. Real low miles, real cheap. In case anyone want to...

It passes over the top toward the front of the distributor with apprx 1/4" to 1/2" clearence. It still leaves a little room to play with wires but hard to get...
If the engine were to shift forward under really hard braking / mild collision, is there a chance that the strut brace could contact the distributor?...
Sage, I think that if the engine were to shift forward under really hard braking or a mild colission you have bigger worries than the strut brace touching the...
