Frickin NICE!

I have the Turner calendar too. I bought the E30 calendar from Condor last year, definitely a good purchase/office decoration/conversation piece for all the damn Buick drivers.

How much did the M3 wire cover and new core support cost?

Yeah dude, free calendars rock. Im considering buying the e30 calendar for this year, it looks awesome.

The core support was $100 shipped off ebay and the wire covers were like $22 a piece off Penske.

[Brian.]

That's a score in its self! I picked up my large all aluminum radiator for $100 from autopartswarehouse! Shipped too!

[StewCrew]

This is all for motor updates for the night. Im about to go work on the core support project.

Timing cover on
