Small Block Chevy E36. Built In Six Short Weeks.

[B Rod]

I spy the future scoop/cowel. That or a snow sled.

Well, I was bored of the red and decided it was time for a scoop and some subtly wider fenders to go with the muscle car grunt.

I hope to have this all wrapped up and repainted in a few weeks!

I actually found a way to fit it under the hood, but the hole has become a strong characteristic of the car so I decided to keep it as is.

The wheels are for sale $1k firm. No need to sell them so I'm no negotiable on that at all. People constantly ask about them so I put the number out there.

were you trying to sell those wheels on instagram? the ones that are on the car in the recent pics.

also wish that the air cleaner would have fit under the hood, but hey, we gotta play the cards we're dealt right? looks great man! wish i could do something like this! maybe one day.

I didn't know there was build thread for this. I seen it a while back on A Google image search. It's too sick. When I had my E36, it actually had me wanting to drop a small block in it. Then I ended up wrecking, unfortunately. Then picked up something with a small block in it. Great build, this thing is awesome.

I fell in love with this car after reading the first post. simply badfuckingass.ive always wanted to put a carbed v8 in one of these or an s13.

Murica.

Occasionally I feel that I owe an update on this car.


I got a taste of drifting in the car this fall and have fallen in love with the sport and the car performs well with it's torquey V8.

December 7-8 you can find me at Summit Point for their season closing 200 Drifters of December event.

The car will look similar but have a much higher ride height and the rear wheels will change multiple times throughout the weekend.

If all goes well there the interior comes out, a proper roll cage will be added and wider wheels with flares are planned.

The pretty shaved bay will likely become a dirty mess and the fine line of street legality will be crossed to the point of this car not likely seeing public roads very often.

At any rate, here are a few pictures from recent months.....
















Some Fun for the NASCAR fan inside of me;








And where the magic happens:

I never got the kickdown to work right with the 700r4. The car was lifeless with that, and it was yanked for the t5 almost immediately after Bimmerfest.

[Leftouch]

With the 700r4 did you have any issues with the vacuum kickdown? I was kinda curious how a 700r4 would handle sporty driving/ need for a quick downshift.

That being said, this thing is absolute tits dude.

[FunfGang]

Not a big fan of chevy engines, but I can respect this for the work and craftsmanship in it. Oh yeah, and because you're another usdm powered Euro owner

New headlights, clears, moldings.....

I need to tear it down, quick glance with the pan off looks like an eagle rotating assembly. Not sure of specifics as of yet
