  1. If you can find any s50 cams I would absolutely love your face......

    For real.

    And I pay cash money!!!

    My m50 needs to go faster! Have not even driven it yet, but it must be faster!

    I get to drive the m50 swapped car today :)

    I am making a new line for everything.

    Kind of annoying.

    I need a new sig, one with an m50 in the e30....

    My build thread is lacking, I should fix that.

    End of annoying line thing.

  2. So it looks like the 318 will be sold! Good or bad I do not know, but it gives me the money I need for the swap car.

    Guy that will be buying it is a good guy, has great taste, and will take care of my baby. It is amazing that You can get so attached to a car. But I know that its going to good hands.

    /rant.

  3. So I pulled the head off of my e34 M50TU to get the head rebuilt (valve seals were not the best on the exhaust of cylinder 3). So I had planned on just rebuilding the head, and slapping it back on, that is until I saw the cylinder walls. I shall let this picture do the talking.

    They are glass, not cool at all. The picture makes them look a tad bit scratched but they are not.

    So I need to do something about that, and I feel as though I wont be able to re-hone those because they have a fairly good lip where the piston stops its travel so I can tell its fairly worn(fairly clear in the picture). I am thinking that I cannot get away with just re-honing and new rings, but am I wrong? Or do I have to bore over .25 and use new rings (which is freaking expensive) Anyone have any insight on this? Obviously I would like to keep this fairly cost effective.

    Any help is appreciated, and I am open to all options here!
