I have used the torque method before and have had good luck so I would use it for all m30s. Recommended from some users on mye28.com

Yes, I had purchased one a year ago when I was working in my '80 head rebuild. I used elring and new it was the right gasket. Had to send proof of title to get the gasket from Europe.

More progress today. I was able to install the cylinder head on the car and get it torqued down as well as the intake manifold reinstalled. http://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/DSC_1184.jpg http://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/DSC_1187.jpg http://drive4corners.c...

So only E28 based euros it would seem?

Are you looking to restore a car or have more of an already finished vehicle?

Sure thing. Sorry I can't help with finding center caps. From what I understand, they are difficult to source.

Some photos of the progress. I have been removing the old window tint and it is looking better! Here is the work in progress at the moment! http://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/DSC_1203.jpg Replacement Cylinder head from 9 '82 633. Exact same marking on the head and an identical c...

There shouldn't be much travel with that MC. Are you sure that it is fully bled? If you push the pedal 20 times, does it get rock hard, or does it still remain slightly squishy? If so, that would suggest air is still somewhere in the system.

Pulled the cylinder head and found two cracks which would explain some of the burning oil.

I have sourced another M90 head with the correct cam and hope to reinstall later this week.

May be a tough fit on the front, I'm not sure. You will rub at full lock and the tires will be stretched, but 225/45/17 should be your best bet.

Rear won't be a problem, even with wide tires.

Head removal is progressing. Hoping to pull the head off tomorrow morning. I have everything removed except the head bolts. May remove the exhaust manifolds, not sure yet. Here are a few photos, although they are rather poor quality, you get the idea. Under the knife, I thought I'd be in this positi...

Might be worth posting locally on CL or somewhere.

For any potential buyers here, you can't expect offers if you haven't shown photos of the cosmetic damage you described.

I did get the windows all working with some connections being repaired inside the doors. I pulled it in to the garage yesterday and have started tearing the engine apart to rebuild the head. It smokes badly coming up to a stop light on decel and all symptoms point to valve guide seals. Good vacuum o...

It happens as the cars get older and the demand diminishes. BMW is in the business, not sourcing parts just to keep our old vehicles on the road.

Unfortunate, but the way it is. Look at 02's and E3/E9's. Those are hard to find parts for.

It should be possible. The big difference may be if it has the memory or not. I imagine that will mean slightly different connector, but wire colors may be the same between the two.

Maybe meant for us spec bumpers??

Car is looking really sharp! Nice job Val.

Thanks guys! Mileage shows only 117K, so overall it is somewhat low miles even if it has sat outside. Here are a few interior pics from the original listing http://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/00V0V_8kIUOWv2Z7N_1200x900.jpg http://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/...

So a couple of years ago I stumbled upon an early euro 635 a ways outside of Denver. After some back and forth I ended up looking at it and eventually purchasing it. It was actually a one owner car, the owner's dad had bought it new or very close to new and then imported it in to the US (Fred Mintur...

Decided on a way to share some family news: http://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/60249853.jpg Should be a busy fall for us! The 635 started up and ran to be able to get the photos, but sputtered close to home. I got it running again to get the photos, unfortunately after 5 restart...

No problem Ellis, thanks for the nice review!

If you have piano top pistons, I think you need the 011.

Any of the three gearboxes should work as long as you have the driveshaft and shift console to match.

I have a spare G260/6 but I'm not exactly close to you.
