Engine out the bottom. I take it the subframe went out with the suspension but I'm not completely sure.

The car needed lots of work so we decided on an engine out job:
-Valve stem seals
-BW LT header install
-Cams
-Slonik pan
-SSP seal for side pan

All that can be done with the engine in the car but why bother?

That said, all the work was done by a proper BMW mechanic. I'm not DIYing valve stem seals...
If this generates power I'll do the BW LT headers and cams to the E92 as well. Regardless I'll do the Karbonius intake on the E92 as well.

If I do the cams and BW LT headers on the E92 I'll publish a couple DIYs for that. Cam timing and header install would be a nice addition to the current DIYs in my signature
