This is what I always dreamed my car would look like. Sub'd!!!

Well done bro, honestly I'm jealous :smilebounce:

Question, did you do any work on the block? Like a deck insert or sleeves?

One thing is for sure ARP head studs makes putting the head back so much more easier. With the head one it was time to adapt the oem harness to accommodate the Precision Race Coils.

Once that was complete it was time to fit the E90 M3 cowl cover and and neaten up the engine bay.

The engineer who i used advised me not to sleeve the block. Either they where scared or did not want to take the risk of sleeving the block or what they told me was actually the truth.

So when sleeving the block, once the motor and the sleeve set in, you have to take the motor apart again to measure clearances and to ensure that the sleeve is seated correctly and i really didn't want to go down this road again.

Closed deck i have done on another block that i have. Hoping that the extra material added will atlas hold the cylinder walls from going oval.
