M52 b30 stroker rebuild back on the road

[E30BeemerLad]

Not sure mate, but it may be the best all round solution

fitting or removing exhaust manifolds on the 24v donks with the engine in situ is a sad job too mate.

Are you running a 3 piece system on yours?

Ideal for Dan's setup then as it will bolt straight to 3 piece system, not sure if he has them ready to go off the shelf or not or whether he needs your manifolds to adapt etc. Worth a PM me thinks

[magpie]

sorting it out with Dan in the morning .

he just pm'd me


more expense though

[craigieeb]

More cost aye,
But think of it this way.....

Once the zaust is bolted up, it's game over, job done ..

and all that's left is driving pleasure

[ImysE30]

Good work, looks good

[bigredbmw]

Think everyone has there chariots on the road now

Salt........... Wound

[Duke137]

This is a really good thread Mick, hat dipped to you sir.

[magpie]

cheers for all the comments guys

i have just ordered the solution From DanThe,how schweet are these





i might be able to bleed the system with these fitted

[Kedge]

They look immense, will be well worth the extra $$$ i would think!

[magpie]

you don't use the e30 p/s fluid bottle with the e36 rack you just mount as it sits in an e36 on the engine mount using the e36 bottle and bracket.another lesson learned

that's all the pipes in place an mounted up.

glad i kept this bottle now when i bought the rack



had a go at bleeding the coolant again today as the neighbors are on there hols and got as far as heat out of the blower but not really hot like it used to be. i undone the rad cap and it just erupted like a volcano chugging and spewing hot water out .

more chew with this bit when me manifolds arrive as even with cotton wool stuffed in me ears after 15 mins of it running on just manifolds begins to do ya nut in

[B15NAC]

yea ive spent hours before trying to bleed cooling systems on m50s its looking good what engine mounts did you use?

from page 9 i think

You want E35 M5 mounts or 635 mount are the best. I got mine from pelican parts $9 each.

[B15NAC]

ok great thanks

[MurphyE30]

Any updates Mick?

[magpie]

sorry for this numpty type 'Q' but will i need to fit a 6-pot coding plug to the clocks

yes mate

Affirmative matey

what will fitting the 6-pot plug do exactly ?i have the 4-pot one in there atm and all the dials work with rev counter etc

Any updates Mick?

just waiting on a new thermostat and the zaust which will be here early next week then i'll have another spanner session with it Murph .

[E30BeemerLad]

Your rev counter will be out of sync mate as it will only be expecting the sparking from 4 cylinders, so it will over read, will probably go off the scale.

[magpie]

got it all bled up yesterday and the elec fan kicked in with loads of hot heat at the heaters
then it sprung a leak from the thermo housing which i'll look at today

got the zaust all bolted up and the p/s linkage on and p/s fluid in then had a wee test drive after it was up to temp before the thermo leak.

i can confirm i have Trippy Diff


sadly my brakes are sh1te wtf do i need to do now ?
the car stops eventually when the brake pedal is on the floor

all i can hear is air from the servo [clio] i put a spacer in the master cylinder when i fitted it.

is this fooked ??

[DanThe]

Is the seal fitted between the master cylinder and servo? Im guessing its either missing or not fitted right
