Ok, so I lied, it’s going to be a 4 day swap. Got a ton done today, but I dont feel comfortable with how close the fan is to the radiator (when installed which it’s not in these photos) so I refuse to run it like that. Gonna grab a thin electric tomorrow and toss that in place instead. Also going to wire up the connectors (see below) during lunch to make it a plug and play swap. Everything else is pretty much buttoned up other than an exhaust… so I’m going to be driving it straight piped into Buffalo on Thursday to get it tightened up at Mufflerman. Should be entertaining :lol:
M20, good riddance.
Ireland Engineering springs
No, there were not any leaks or anything…
Need to finish wiring up the connectors tomorrow. That’s the e30 engine harness connector (left), and the e36 body harness connector (right) which I need to put together so I can interface the e30 body harness with the e36 engine harness.
