So bits have been done while no updates. so quick update..

Then to weld tank shut..


AN Fittings back of tank.. and such.


Some nice 'weldporn'


Then bits ive ordered have arrived, here is bottomend stuffs that i have for the engine..

Diff changes..

Bought diff off a E39 540iA (Typ210 like mine but no LSD)


Pinions... slight difference..


Quick work on lathe.. and looks money


And it fits like a glove , also cardan now fits the diff yey only now i need to shorten the cardan..

[Exami]

Engine block beadblasted:

and painted..


Alternator parts same..


And assembled..

this build.... holy fuck, I was actually kind of upset when I got to the 10th page and realised I wouldn't see the end, bit of a cock tease really haha

Definitely subbing to this, cannot describe how impressive this whole build is. No holds barred!

Thanks!

Things are moving forward. at least some phase.. not fast but steadily..
Bit of painting done:



Block has machined for the pistons and such.



Got a driveaxle..

Compared to oem..


Got the diff rebuilt, from 25% lock up to 50/50 locking with extra clutch discs..


Testing new axle...


Next up sand the car, get it painted, get micro stubs, modify rear wheelhubs for bigger spline.. and measure crank & rod bearings. order bearings, test clearance, new arp hardware bottom and head.. build bottomend. quite a list..

[Exami]

So ive got bit forward with the build...

Plan for rear drive axle:


After market hood "fixed":


ARP Studs on bottomend:


Fuse & relay boxes 'done'


K-type sensors for exhaust:


I did blueprint the pistonrings:




So build is moving forward piece by piece as said earlier bottom end is now missing crankbearing.. (ordered rod + crank bearing last week but crank bearings delayed until nextweek..)

Also i did start the actual wiring job for the chassis, some of it done already but more of that later on. cheers..
