If anyone wants coffee or a bite to eat on the way in, just a heads up that there is an awesome coffee shop called "School Grounds" right off of the freeway 2 mins from my shop.

I received a few final pieces to finish rebuilding the oil pump. The new outer rotor has a .002" larger diameter than the old one which in itself will increase/restore pump performance substantially.
The overpressure relief springs had an evident difference in length and stiffness . The new one being longer and stiffer and better for preventing any early bleed-off of pressure. The new o-ring was badly needed as well.
The Achillies upgraded pump shaft comes with a bolt instead of a nut, a new sprocket (has flats instead of splines, a bmw sprocket will not work on this shaft) and safety wire.
I also received the little cam tray dowel I needed. Lets see if I can finally get these stupid camshafts installed this weekend

that's probably one of the most genuinely cool cars ever listed on MKE CL, even if it is a rep.

I never personally touched this car but I do know it quite well. It has massive body rust.

The gentleman was a kidney surgeon. I just thought it was funny as a BMW enthusiast.

Pintle caps, orings, and filters came for the injectors. Didnt get around to cleaning, and testing the injectors though.
What I did do, is remove the throttlebody and spacer and strip the manifold for paint. I only took two pictures as I spend the rest of the time beating the shit out of the TB with a dead blow to get it off. I have never has such a hard time removing a TB in my life.
I also installed the valve covers and gaskets along with the coolant pipe for the heater core. This resulted in me doing some research about coolant flow and early E36 heater cores because I currently am not getting heat in the cabin. I found my problem as the water pump lines were looped and I just reinstalled them that way when I did the h2o pump when I got the car. I highlighted what they should be:
