    More great news! My TR6060 arrives Monday. Along with a ZR1 flywheel, clutch and throw out. There is also an LS7 hot cam on the way. Still waiting on numbers but I was told my motor can rev to 7600!

    Needs a "Baby on board decal!" Congrats on your new son!

    Loved your E34, love this project even more!!!

    I'll be swapping an iron block 6.0 + 4L80E into my E39 touring later this year. Definitely getting inspired by your build and 357i's!!!

    I really should have gotten one for the 996TT.

    I debated it while sitting in line at the DMV and ultimately thought some uber-liberal would key my car as a result of associating the plate with the tea party...

    Traction control sticker IS pretty damn cool. That bay is already gorgeous looking, you mod cars so well.

    I might have missed it, but what kind of engine brackets did you use custom or did you buy them from somewhere?

    I'm on the lookout for an E39 and I would want to do something similar. A few years ago I almost bought an E36 with a 327 in it, I still kinda wish I would have gotten it.

    Thanks, everyone! It's amazing to be a dad

    I have been messing with the car here and there but my transmission still hasn't arrived. It should move pretty quickly after that.

    Clay and I got the stickers and t's from eBay. There is a seller who will do the decals in whatever size you want. That is 2.5".

    My Fortune Auto 500 series rear shocks arrived today. They came setup as coilovers but I only need them as shocks. I might want to use the springs for the rear anyway as I am all the way down as is with the 200mm 8k springs. These are 170mm 8k's.

    I love that the shock height is now fully adjustable without altering shock output in addition to my spring perch height. And the shocks themselves are 25 way adjustable. I can already tell a huge difference b/t full soft and full firm by rocking the car back and forth. I cannot wait to drive it now. I will be able to really dial in the suspension.

    Sorry that the latter photos were taken with the cell. Will update with some better ones later.
