I have not taken apart the old one, it'll happen one day and I'll post the results here.

It feels wonderful to have 3 M3s that run!!!

Good stuff, congratulations!!

the track season is ending and I'll have more time. Meanwhile the block is sitting around with fluid in its valley, so everything points to a cracked block

I still want to disassemble it, it sounds like great fun!

disassembled the engine completely on Saturday

Main bearing #1 spun

I took a ton of pics so I'm wondering if I should just open a new thread
