What did you need to modify?

I would think you could shape that piece fairly easily. Make a rectangular patch. Make the hard crease in a vise. Shape the curve over a piece of pipe

S54 M coupe. Love it. They are very fast. We have an 06 M roadster in the driveway right now we are rebuilding. Such a nice motor... BTW how does one determine if the rod bearings need refreshing?

That was a good investment!!

No reserve! That's bold. I don't think I would agree to that unless I was really confident I wasn't going to leave a couple hundred thousand on the table!

Possibly, I believe the end of the sensor acts as a stop

why don't you rebuild it, instead of replacing it?

Probably lots of fun with power like that!

What does worn mean? Pictures?? It will not change the temperature in the radiator at all! It will boil at a higher temperature but then you might bust hoses at the higher pressure or have leaks. "If it's not broke; don't break it!!"

I believe all the newer BMW manual boxes use a "lifetime" atf for lubrication. It's red and feels just like ATF. I believe it was done to help increase mileage and reduce parasitic drag

I use liquid sealers very often. I recently used it on a bmw valve cover. Its not recommended. They are notoriously leaky.

Gonna have to be skinny to hide in that shadow these days!

I would think you could fabricate a bracket pretty easily if you have one to copy

Yes, yes!! Exactly what I was thinking

yes, potentially. Depends how hard it is to get out

Yes

Oiling can be bad for the clocks

Are the aftermarket ones LED or incandescent?

Very pretty! Xmas in October

very informative

Well there's a project for you Chris!!!

Or you could contact one of the better panel fabricators. They could probably supply one

I have 2 different style vacuum bleeders but I still prefer pedal bleeding. I dont know if you've noticed but air can come in around the threads of the bleed screw. That can't happen with pedal bleeding. Fluid can come out but air can't come in

I sometimes run ½ a quart through before I'm happy with how it looks. Mainly because a I want clear fluid coming out. No black. The bubbles normally go away pretty fast unless the line is really empty
