New 3/4/5 97' M3 Track car Head removal and assembly

[exclusivs]

Good call guys

Trying not to get carried away while waiting for new Headbolts, OFHG was done 60k ago on this car but just too easy to not get to it today.

Drei Bond 1209 is what’s called for - any objections? Have some left over from Vanos rebuild

So we thinking entire front timing cover application for RTV?

Any guys with pics they can throw up or there’s?

Just where three corners meet (head, timing cover and block) I believe.

That’s what it’s seeming like:

Any other guys go joints only?
Or full timing cover ?

Thanks guys!

There's a very specific reason it's needed at a corner where 2 gaskets meet.
Follow the Bently manual.
Do not RTV the full cover.
