Engine bay reinforcement

Not much to say, but you can see part of what it takes in the front to use the e30m3 subframe.   25mm master cylinder on the m3 booster. Bracketry in front of the master cylinder is / was fur the ABS pump. I'll be able to simplify the hard line routing and tuck it out of the way. I'll cut the ABS brackets out.   Massive amounts of reinforcement everywhere, the front end feels really solid, even with the 16x8's and the GC suspension with 350 pound springs.   Oh, and

Ground Control struts

Welded on the Ground Control bits, installed the rebound adjustable Koni inserts, Eibach springs, GC camber plates. These are the e30m3 struts but it's the same for the 2002 guys.   The rear is interesting, between the 02 chassis and the e30m3 subframe I need springs in the 11 to 13 inch long range...   All of this is temporary until I get around to another set of MCS dampers. Loved them in the tii, they're just super ultra mega.

Trigger wheel

Been doing a bunch of work, just not as gregarious as some.   Bought a spare crank pulley / damper. @jimk supplied an extra timing wheel. Tried to weld it on- I have a welder, I'm not a welder- so pung my buddy James at https://www.blacksheepbikes.com/ to see if he could help. Sure as shit he's a welder and stuck everything together for me. So new pulley is on.   Oh, bracket for the crank trigger is Jim's design as well.   Next will be removing unnecessary wires fro

This sweet '76 found me needing a new home and someone to take care of it. I headed to CA with a buddy just as the monstrous fire started to destroy Paradise (I grew up just down the hill from there.) It started, ran, drove and the price was close enough so we loaded it on the trailer and headed back to CO.   It's a '76 with a rather complete e30m3 swapped into it, including AC, power steering, cruise control, subframes, suspension, brakes, everything.  They even relocated the strut to
