      Anyone notice that I suck at build threads? I do!

      Got the head redone, looks real nice and shiny!

      Got ARP studs and a .14 MLS gasket, painted the block a lighter gun metal grey (ha, get it?) and put it all back together, along with new piston rings and rod bearings and all new bolts. I have the turbo, its a holset HX35, ordered an intercooler.

      Got a ZF, lots of stuff. All good fun!

              Alright, so a while ago I pulled the head and took that in to get machined and hot tanked, came back like this

              Was good to say the least, then the goodies rolled in!

              Posted Image

              ARP2000's and a Cometic MLS gasket!

              Put the head back on, and bolted her down tight!

              Cleaned and painted the block somewhere in there as well.

              Posted Image

              Soo much gasket...

              Posted Image

              oh, and this!

              Posted Image

              Cleaned up my carrier and added a new bearing to that as well!

              Posted Image

              And just because he did it...

              Posted Image

              Tis my father! Who recently bought a 330i sport! I don't have pictures of it for some reason?!

                          Why? I don't have new wheels. They're the same. I just changed up the color. An it looks stellar on bronze IMO.

                              Referring to them as rims is improper. Referring to them as wheels is correct=) You sound like a bro saying RAYUMS! lol

                                        Though a friend may have a hookup on anodizing it!
