motocaddy's e36 vert build

[motocaddy]

Looks so sinister in there man. Wow

Thanks! I may never run a hood again cause it would be a shame to hide it.

I'm lovin' the satin black painted bits you got going on to mesh well with the gloss white bay, looks flawless!

Glad you like. I've been alternating between gloss, satin and wrinkle to have some contrast and like how it is coming out.

What the fuck there is a V8 in your engine bay and its been shaved?!

How could I have missed so much :|

What can I say? I've been doing work!

Damn dude, I need to catch up. Cant let you finish your V8 before me

You better hurry! I hope to debut this at Wekfest Texas next weekend.

Great build man. Whats your plans for headers? Mount the drivers side backwards and crossover pipe?

Both headers are backwards and I have a custom downpipe that combines them and goes over subframe. There's a pic in this thread a couple pages back.

That looks really good Ben. Is it bolted down or is this just a test fit mock? I must come by & see this in person.

Thanks! It's in there for good now. Just have to start working my way through and make all the connections.

Awesome progress=)

You know what 4 day weekends mean??? Progress!!









It feels pretty awesome to have it in the bay! I'm really surprised how small it is and low in the bay. I have room to work and install other parts wherever I need, which was not the case with the BMW 6-cylinder. Also, I figure it is good for handling if you're valve covers are even with the tops of your tires.

This is amazing! I'd love to have my bay cleaned up and painted one day
