I would like to send a shout out to Effduration . I did it privately but I would like to do it on the forum because that is what connected us . I would also like to let other forum member know what a great service he did for me. I bought a 2003 Bmw 525i with the M-package . It had overheated and was not running . I took it apart and it was the headgasket . I had the heads done and the block. I know I could have gotten a used motor but I enjoy the work . I was tempted to put it back together without installing time serts . But in the back of my mind I knew i should install the time serts . I posted about the renting the time sert kit. That's where Effduration came in he had the kit and sent it to me. He charged me a small fee which I was more then glad to pay. The fact that he took a chance on me someone he had never met or knew anything about was a real leap of faith. I just wanted to say thank you sir and if the car runs or not doesn't matter . This experience with you has been well worth it.
