I, personally, live in a hole. I can’t speak for anyone else. 
 

I don’t check the forums that frequently sos didn’t see the notice. 

i think its ok.  i always end up getting two emails.  one from tap and one from here...  one's enough. thanks for the inform and thanks for keeping the forum alive and well traveled!

Looking for a cam removal tool.  Maybe a loaner 

Old post, anyone else know where i can get a cam removal tool?

Toby, 

i know, long time, but got pics?

If they are what guest-anonymous is saying then i think they are exactly what I’m looking for.  I’ll PM you.

thanks!

WHat head do they go with?  Any idea the compression?

Sold for $800.

Right now sale pending and another person waiting in the wings.  If they sell I’ll tag SOLD, if those folks fall thru I’ll update.

thanks for the interest.  

put in a roll bar and racing seat so these have to go.  came w/ the car. surprisingly good shape, no rips, tears, stuffing looks new, springs good. come w/ front sliders so they can bolt right in.  front mechanism works fine.

trying to figure out a reasonable price, would appreciate suggestions / offers.  

SOLD for $800.

let me know if you want more pics...

hi,  i dropped some pics into tmy "as built" album.  take a look.  i don't know what the price would be.  i'm hunting around for that.

thanks, Kyle

Just finished a track day.  At end of day temps were rising.  Have a stock 1600 radiator and am looking for either a e21 (not the plastic one) or an upgraded AL one.

thanks

Still have the radiator?

Hey,

i just put in a roll bar so pulled the seats.  1969, black.  Front and back.  You want the whole works?  They’re in good shape.  I’m in Los Gatos.  PM me... 

what tires / wheels you running?

looks awesome btw!  Big Willow is a fast track.

what kind of a head?  e12, e21, 121?

What do you mean crap IE rockers?  Vs. VAC?  Interested as I’m starting engine rebuild...

My documentation says Jack Fahuna did the engine build and I hear he’s reputable and definitely some of the other work looks great so I have no reason to doubt.   Curiously the engine really blows oil smoke ( all the time) and compression is in the 135-140psi range. Not done too long ago (2014) so don’t get that.  

I have a used lynx intake with a 45 on a shelf as well as a used stahl header.  (Thank you forum!!!). Looking for cam. 

Someone mentioned table for heights. I’ll look tonight when I get home. 

Thanks for the help. 

E21 head.  I’m planning on dissembling the lower end so will have full access to the pistons.

if i could find a 121 head i might pry open my wallet enough to get a set of those Mahle 10:1 pistons that are floating around here.  Curious as to why there are so many of those.... someone mis-order?

my  engine is "tired" and needs a rebuild. I found old paper work from the previous owner who installed this engine and it said 9.5:1 pistons.  I'd like more power (currently 32/36, stock cam, tii exhaust as far as i can tell), but would keep the pistons if i could for this go around.  (intake, header on shelf ready to go, still noodling cams).  Is there a way i can determine what i have once i open it up?  i'll look for identifying marks, but any other way to tell?

thanks!

looks sweet!

PM’d

bmw1602.  that's sweet.  i'll check the build thread.  thinking about your pistons, but currently i think the head that goes w/ them (e21) is on the car.   do you have a 304 or is there a "sort of equivalent" regrind?  cams are pricey.  ok, everything's pricey.    looks like i've got some more reading to do over lunch!! woohoo!

oh, live an hour and change from Laguna Seca, 1.5hrs from Infineon, 3hrs from Thunderhill, 3 hrs from Buttonwillow,   need to get the track car a bit sportier!  currently very willing to tow to the track, but want to be able to drive on the street to make sure its ready for the track...

have a lynx intake w/ a 45 and a header on a shelf.  was wishing for a cheap 304-ish cam.  any suggestions for that?  been slowly trolling here and craigslist for parts and am just about ready to pull the trigger on a rebuild.  saw the post for 10:1 pistons and thought ...  maybe.  prior to that i was thinking 9.5 or so and  292-304-ish cam.

primarily track car now.  roll bar, one seat. engine burns oil like crazy so feel bad doing grocery store runs.  bought a spare engine that i was going to rebuild and swap in. of course, the head in the car and the head on the spare are not the same....  e12 vs. e21.
