real talk though i'll stop shitting up the group chat and get my m50(b25tu) maintenance sorted out here.

currently todo:

• head gasket
• vanos seals, rattle repair kit (besians)
• thermostat housing replacement
• hydraulic alternator tensioner conversion
• upgraded oil pump shaft (achilles)
• reinforce oil pick-up (also achilles)

thermostat and water pump / pulley are replaced already.

am i missing anything big? motor has 140-160 on it iirc

Which trans are you using? I see the M20 flywheel. I am still extremely skeptical about all this nonsense people spout off online about the M20 flywheel hitting the block. Im not seeing it.

I see the upgraded oil pickup tube. Are you using a rear-sump oil pan?

G260 with the sachs m20 clutch kit (https://www.ecstuning.com/b-sachs-parts/clutch-kit/21211223102~sac/), I've got the trans brace from ben already.

i have an e34 oil pan but i personally wouldn't know if that's rear sump, haven't ordered the oil pump parts so no worries if I screwed up.

E34 is front sump, all others are rear sump
