    Ordered everything on this list under E30 except the head studs and cutring gasket. Also got a new oil temp & pressure gauge with matching sending units.

        Not sure but don't want to risk it at all.

          You didn't like the Podi gauge I assume?

                I definitely will and if they look good I'll sell them for cheap.

                      Make note of this part of that post: Remember... no gasket can hold up to a bad tune, so make sure that your tuning is solid and dyno tested, and let's keep pushing the limits of the E36 platform!

                        My attention has been on my bathroom remodel but that will be wrapped up next week. I'll be port matching the exhaust ports, turbo flange and turbo then taking it back to the machine shop.

                                    Got the exhaust side of the head ported out a ton.

                                    Stock width:

                                    The final width was 49mm.  I still had a little of work to do on this one.

                                    In a couple of days I'll get the head back and go from there.  I'll be ordering Megasquirt 3 soon and see how all that stuff works...here goes nothing!  Snap is helping me out a lot with the MS3x transition.
