Should I PlastiDip or use Trim paint on it?

Where's a good place to find a es valence?

Junkyard for the valence

Also, paint would be great if you never want to see the chrome again. Rough it up with scotchbrite and use satin black krylon paint.

Suspension is up in the air right now; going to see if I can't get around to painting and tucking my bumper today

Or cut the bumpers off and make rally bumpers with a light bar for the front I've already got ideas fort e28 which is bumperless now

Do the "i" head swap and keep the eta bottom end for sure!  I would highly recommend to replace the valve seals while the head is off.  Can you replace the rod bearings while the crack is still in?  If so, do that as well.

I have a 524td manifold if you're interested.  You'll have to source some adapters to make it work.  A guy on r3v just sold some.

I would keep the metal bumpers.  The rear sits a little higher so it is more aerodynamic because racecar.

What are you going to do for a tune?

Going to tune on megasquirt hopefully! What's the benefit of the 524d manifold? I haven't done extensive engine work before only replaced headgaskets and done timing a few times so I'm unsure about the valve seals and bearings

How much are the adapters going for?

The 524d manifold would be awesome if its cheap enough
