| Message: | I think I was 18 or so. 11 years, two fiances, one wife, three kids and a mortgage later... I have been less consistant a presence here. I was at my most fervent when I bought the M5. Since then, Maine claimed my 528e through salt poisoning, and my M5 has been on a trickle-funded refreshing rebuild. I got rid of the salty clunker and hide my M in the drive-under garage. Most of my neighbors have never even heard of it, and none of them have seen it come out to play. I haven't had that much to write about, and i haven't flexed my E28 knowledge in such a long time... I thought maybe everyone left a while back when everything started getting 'oops-ed', or that everyone just seemed to have things going like I did. At any rate, I just got my last engine pieces back from the machine shop after an extended (almost four years!) stay. I will be reassembling the engine on a stand starting this weekend once I turn the car around in the garage and move the engine stand out of the "engine room". What's going on: Wiseco 10.5:1 Forged w/ pins Replaced oil-starved cambox payed for head work twice! (once wrong, once right) 5-angle seats re-balanced rotating/reciprocating assy. Other than that, am planning the Miller MAF/W.A.R. upgrade and will hopefully be driving this summer. I do go on...
