      Well, I nailed my oil pan really hard the first time driving my car home with the swap, so I wanted to make sure it'd be safe.  E30 guys rally with this plate so I trust it can handle waukesha roads.

      Id say race skid, only because Ive been paranoid of ruining my pan since day one hahah.

                I can stand on it (185) and it doesnt flex at all!  I also just learned today that theres a good chance my motor will be timed on Friday!

                          I actually weight lifted quite a bit once joining the military. I know for a fact I'll be able to out deadlift you. But aside from that, I've got goofy long arms, that suck for benching.

                            Twas a joke.  I dont actually lift.  I dont care who can lift more.  Its lifting.

                              bro, you dont even lift?

                              Ever since age 19 and 5 months I decided that rolling the window down and jamming my arm down on the lock-pull was a more effective way to make my biceps bulge for the delight of wimmen

                                  Welp my motor isnt getting timed today.  I dropped my upper tensioner and broke the chain guide.

                                    Go get another. I'm sure a few people in the area have one.  =\

                                      He ordered a new one. That is one part I wouldn't want to swap with a used one......

                                        My new upper tensioner came last week, and pelican even sent an e46 m3 sticker along with it.  This will be going on my evo hood hanging in my office at work.

                                        24A64382-355B-4A8B-A539-CF25BD8748A4-116

                                        Also polished the copper nuts that came with my exhaust manifold stud kit.

                                        Heres a before and after

                                        TMS2zpsdcc177f3.jpg

                                        84E43941-A7A6-4257-A287-648CFA8CFAD7-116

                                        I also have a question for these, since I wasnt able to find anything online.  Do you just put the new studs in hand tight with loc-tite or something?  The studs dont have an allen head on the end so it will be hard to get a lot of torque on them.

                                        7475a3b8-1768-471d-a58d-a14ce9cfe544zps
