Do you have a photo or image of what you need?

I thought there was a difference between early and late cars.

I was ready to start this and then possibly drive it! Had problems with the starter not wanting to turn. Bosch SR441X seems to be NLA, so I got an aftermarket starter. 10.5 vs 15.3lbs https://drive4corners.com/wp-content/usergallery/hashtag/20231109_163118.jpg It just clicked, so I am not sure what ...

Doesn't look bad from here.. Are you sure it is as bad as you suggest?

It looks quite nice, but some questions on the history. I think to me I am surprised it looks like it has a clearcoat.. has anybody else noticed this? Henna should be single stage... or did they just buff and wet sand the heck out of it? Also for such a premium, I would hope they would have a few mo...

Should be correct for an 8" wide wheel! 16's will handle a bit better though.

Agreed, I don't know what type of material our rings are for m30, but I mainly wanted to point out if you see factory cross hatching and in my case reuse of rings, a rehone shouldn't be necessary. Also wanted to share this thread about the wire for red/black which on let cars and sr441x may stop run...

Thanks Song. Tangible progress always helps! I went to build oil pressure and crank the engine and the starter wouldn't turn. So I ended up pulling the starter this week and it only arcs when I give it 12v signal on the bench. I ordered an sr441x starter and supposedly it will have enough power to n...

I made more progress last week and got the engine fully bolted down and the wire harness rerouted along with a bunch of other items. When bolting the engine in, I left off the fan clutch and fan, as well as the flywheel and clutch so that I would have a bit more clearance for reinstall. It is a a ti...

Thanks for the nice thought! Yes, I have been busy with little children at home too! But I was pretty bummed when I realized that my 635 had this big problem. In the mean time, I have been able to make a bit more progress since August. I realized I didn't share the details of getting the engine apar...

Thanks Song. Uncharted territory for me and I was sad to have the problem and not be able to drive the car but also interested to do the repair and learn more about engine building so I am taking the opportunity to learn more about all of it through the process. Some additional photos. Here are conn...

Congrats!

Long overdue update here. I had some bad luck with the car and am not sure if I would consider it my ignorance or not. But I had been driving the car on and off in 2021 until I had resolved the running problem related to the parts inside the distributor. I had resolved that problem and drove the car...

Wow, very cool car!

I liked mine so much I had it repaired

I wonder where I could get a used crankshaft for my M90? The threaded end of mine broke off. Otherwise, the motor ran great with oversize JE pistons, a 284 cam, 320i intake runners and a 3.73LS diff. I want to get my car back on the road but can't find a crankshaft. Also, will an M30B35 head work o...

Maybe a federalization requirement at the time of import?

Early early model US cars did have a federalized 5mph bumper that is longer but similar to the early euro. This would have been on a 630CS or similar early car. Your rear for an early euro should be like your original '78 635. If you can track one down, the good news is that they are quite easy to r...

Did I miss your asking price?

Why parting? Looks salvageable from the photo. Could I swap good parts over from my wrecked 633?

I have from 533/633 with 0261200008 (008 red label) ECU, green idle modules (two) and matching AFM.

Came from my 150k mile '83 633, running and driving condition. Stored inside since removal in 2016.

Asking $300 plus shipping for all 3.

Air flow meter for sale: motronic based M90 from a 1981 635CSI to go with ECU 0 261 200 002.

AFM that ends with 013. I converted to m1.3 and I think Bert bought the matching ecu. Pretty rare application.

$95 plus shipping costs
Pm or email me.

Ian, they look nice. Hope all is well with you!

Robert gave you a deal on these parts and you are just flipping them here.

Also has blue toolkit rag. https://d...

Hi Rainer, I get about 20mpg average. A bit higher on the highway, but lower in the city. Here are my logs over 20k miles: https://www.fuelly.com/index.php/car/bmw/635csi/1980/mpower0254/43492 I have closer ratio gears than you so you should see a bit better than me if you are running optimally. I f...
