LsBeema 466 Report post Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) Such an enjoyable & pleasing part of the build....!!!🤗🤗🤗😎😎😎😎 Have to raise the gearbox and lower the driveshaft center bearing to align the driveshaft coupling to flange. Clearances are so sweet btw!!! Bled the clutch. My first thoughts were I would have to change the master to accomodate the V8 pressure plate...but nah. Steerling Brake advised the 3/4 bore from the e36 master would work...and....shes has a soft az paddle🤗🤗🤗 Have to get and fit the O2 sensors to the exhaust and prep and spray. Oh yea...to tidy up that rear mount of muffler. ..looks rough. Will shift it to the upper so wont be visible. 20210208_085712_1.mp4 Edited February 8, 2021 by LsBeema 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zero 1162 Report post Posted February 8, 2021 Does it work out more cost effective to have franklin cams modify your existing cams, than to buy upgraded cams? I know this is the case with the bmw M5x and M6x engines Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The semi chisel contours of the 36 feeling more defined...like shes finally almost ready, stanced, not for low'ness, but for whats under her hood...eagerly awaiting to be unleashed!! And those 3.5s look mental from a distance.....like..."look at this POSER"😂😂 Edited February 9, 2021 by LsBeema 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arron 227 Report post Posted February 13, 2021 1 hour ago, LsBeema said: Reverse selector goes stiff after 10 km ph.... this is the way it is meant to be they have a reverse lockout solenoid on them, that only activates from 0-10 kmph. this makes it easy to get into reverse whist stationary and makes it near impossible to get it into reverse of you are traveling over the set speed where it de-activates the solenoid It is to stop people going into reverse by accident because 5th and reverse are quite close together Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
