E30 Convertible Project PT.2 - Is Rewrapping Your Old Dash Worth it? Leaky Oil Line FIX
Awesome paint job. Not to be a mean or typical bad comment on YT but i would have personally takeniff the bkack side door trim and painted them flat matte black to look OEM and then installed them back. If you ever have ti take them off it will now leave a oaint mark. Just a suggestion. Otjer than that i know youll get better with time 👍🏽🤙🏽
You are correct about the plugs in the rocker shafts. They are there to maintain oil pressure to the rocker assemblies. Years ago, in the 1960/70's, the plugs were aluminum, hammered in, and loctited in place. We also had a factory tool at the dealer for the six and the four cylinder. It would depress all of the valves at one time and thereby rotate the rockers away from the cam and allow removal of the cam while leaving the rockers installed. One had to be careful not to allow the valves to contact one another and bend.
Hey what’s the part number for rear hubs and bearings ??
make a small slide hammer with the correct thread in end and pull them out all 4 outwards instead of sliding one half over the entire length of head
Hallo is it possible to replace the valve seals without taking of the cilinderhead by taking out the grill and radiator. And take out the rockers at the frontside when the timing belt and the camshaft sprocket is off Mine e21 323i needs new valve seals And of course put compressed air in the cilinder through the spark plug hole. Thanks
That’s funny I have to do the valve seals on my E21 323i as well and im wondering the same thing. Wondering if I can slide the rockers over enough to get a tool on there and press the springs down. Let me know if you figure it out I’ll be doing mine in the spring!
@ Hi Tony I m doing mine as a winterproject. I have taken the two clips off off cilinder 1. Then you can slide the slide pieces from left to right. At the exhaust side is i think enough space to take the spring off. But when you slide the two pieces to the right there is not many space on the intake side to take the spring off becuase the tool dos not fit nice I keep trying .
@@stefanlaumen6903 ah that is what I was worried about as well. I’ll be taking a cylinder head off an m20 in the next week or so. I will try and see if it’s possible to get enough room. If I can figure it out I’ll let you know!
@@tonyfares7921 I think it’s possible The only problem is how to push the rockers out. There is no space at the backside to hammer
Hi Tony I have just replaced the valve seals from cilinder 1 without taking off the cilinderhead. I order a spring pressure tool. Piston in the bottom off the cilinder. Seals were torn 5 to 7 bar air pressure on the cilinder. The intake side is more difficult than the exhaust side . So it is possible
Do you remember the part number to the nissens radiator
Very easy
How would you describe the NHV with the solid LCAB? Still daily drivable or too annoying?
what a bloody moron, hammering the rocker arm pipes like that, pull it out with a bolt attached instead.
Of course the video cuts out around the part I can’t get done hahaha
Fantastic video. A wonderful amount of knowledge dropped here.
Hello nice video, I have a 1990 E34 with the M20B20, can this be turned into a M20B25 or there is not point of doing it?
Depends on what your goals are. Are you just wanting more performance?
@@superbimmerbros yeah nothing crazy just to give it a 30-40hp in order to have more power from the beginning
HI , DO TOPS BY MYSELF BUT TEST THEM WITH PETROL FOR LEAKS ON VALVESEAT , MUST BE SHURE
IS WHAT ITS GOOD RIGHT?
Where are you located? I have a car that I need help
Hey David! We are in San Diego county California. You nearby? We'd love to help!
good job!😉
Welche Werkzeuge sind zum schlagen kannst du den link mir schreiben
Great video !
Im getting my e30 soon with a disassembled m20 im gonna put a used m20 full while i rebuild mine as a strocker
My Dad always used to say, "if you lose your wealth, you've lost nothing,, If you lose your health, you've lost something, But if you lose your reputation, you've lost everything!" Been watching your channel a while and always impressed with your honesty and openness. If I lived in California, I'd certainly trust you guys with my prized BMW.
You have no clue how much this means to us man thank you!! 🙏
Also absolutely no need to remove it dis a valve unless ur going to service it same with ICV
Shop looks so good 💪🏽
Thank you!! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for posting this.
You're very welcome we appreciate the feedback 🙏
Weekly blogs are good.
Thank you so much for the input 🙏
OMG, where you guys been?
Sorry for the long hiatus! We were getting things organized to be able to come back consistently. Let us know what you like to see more of on the channel! Thanks for waiting 🙏
Sorry for asking, but my m3 e92, when i start it and go around, it doesnt go more than 2k rpm, like if something is blocking the engine. Do you know why?
Sounds like it may possibly be in limp mode. Are you getting any timing related codes?
What’s a job like this cost? Getting into another e30 soon
Hey bro! This service currently starts at 7k. We send the block out to get bored next size up with new pistons and rings. Cranks are all inspected and turned for next size up if necessary.cylinder head gets completely rebuilt, valves ground and seats cut. New cam in the head with fresh seals, rockers etc. Block gets new gaskets, seals etc. Send an inquiry via Instagram or shoot us an email superbimmerbros@gmail.com 👍
2 hours later i finally found this video and found the bolt 😅
Happy to help! That pesky nut needs a better location haha
Just did the job today first time, and for about 5 minutes was tryna loosin it and figured out I missed that bolt😂
Glad we could help!! 🤙😁
Is there a specific tool to lock the flywheel so as to remove the crank bolt? M20 engine
As far as i know there is a tool. Parts number is bmw 112150. @laserfalcon
@@Intelcroa Found it 👍
@@laserfalcon ok good👍
Thanks for the video. Time to break my E12 head down for rebuild.
Those cylinders are out of spec. Maximum should be 84.04. This motor will experience blow-by and reduced power. Should have rebored to 84.5 and ran 20 thou pistons + rings.
Hey! Loved the vid about to do this with my '88 528e, what year/model exactly was yours? Sorry if i missed you say it haha. Dropped a sub will have to check after work if any updates came from this e28 :)
Updates are on the way man! Shop has grown a lot since we've posted so the projects have been put on a brief hold but it's an 87! 88 is great cuz it has the harness needed for a b35 swap 🙌
dope
Thank you 🙏
What is the name of the product you are using? I looked for immoression blue, lube, pressure blue..no results...and getting ready to do a valve job. Thanks.
Prussian blue also known as DYKEM blue 🤙
Oiling the back side of bearings is a no no and spraying copper gasket spray on to the block, pistons and bores is never a good idea. You could have easily sprayed the back side of the head gasket.
Thanks for the feedback man! We have since then stopped oiling the back of the bearings as you said and cut back on the copper spray all of our recent builds mostly get the block skimmed so no real reason for the spray anymore. Cheers 🙏
for the Front Swap do the fit for Z3?
Can't say for certain but considering it's an e36 it might work!
@@superbimmerbros With this arm bushing control arm is stock?
This piston thing f ed me up after waiting 6 months for new ones they were to tall. Just bought a motor.
Such a helpful video, literally the only one I could find with the engine still in the car, you guys fucking rock ❤
Your feedback means the world to us Max thank you 🙏
YEAH I FREAKING WANT ONE NOW BAD
Time to pick one up! 😎
Hey mate, great video. Just bought a 1989 318i myself, and am looking at doing a 5 lug conversion with the e30 m3 front suspension. I'm really new to the e30 scene and I'm just wanting to see what parts I would need to be able to do it myself. I understand that the m3 parts are much more expensive, but I am trying to make the perfect e30 build. I have started to put together a list of everything that I'll be doing to the car if you were curious as to the direction that I'll be going with it. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1__3WcD3dpHuqjyOxfcZElMEz0Wti8M1qREliorb66F8/edit?usp=sharing Thanks, Aidan
Pretty ingenious approach!!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much we hope it helps! 🙏
is it non vanos??
Yup! Pulled from a 96/97 (don't remember which) e38 740i!
For anyone watching this...NEVER lube the back side of the bearing halves when installing them in the engine. You ONLY want to put assembly lube on the inner face of the bearings AFTER they are installed. Putting assembly lube on the back side of the bearings will vastly increase the chances of spinning a bearing.
Hey Dustin! Thanks for the comment and for sharing. We have since then stopped doing this for this exact reason. We luckily haven't had any issues from doing this BUT we completely agree!
Hi my brother i m a m30 owner 635csi from south Africa i swaped my engine with an m30 from e34 my problem is oil filter housing its not pumping oil i can see the difference on the gasket of the housing in short it doesn't pump oil
Hello brother! We have had the same issue before, we cut a new gasket that resembles the housing to ensure oil pressure makes its way past the filter. Please let us know if we can offer any more help!
For sale?
Not yet 😅
Thanks a millon times , why didn't anyone else point that out 😅
Sometimes we have to go back and rewatch this tip because it's so easy to forget! 😭
Did you ever end up doing the rears on the e28?
Not yet! It has been long overdue. I actually ended up getting a bad ball joint on the front tie rod end and it made a nasty pop sound so I'm hoping to once again do the front! Rears are definitely next
Oh man, glad you got that sorted. Eagerly waiting for the next e28 video!@@superbimmerbros
Good video and nice to see you back! A shorter format can work well and may be less troublesome on your end. Bite-size videos that focus on troubleshooting, maintenance and repairs are really helpful.
This sort of feedback means the world to us thank you and hope you're still watching! 🙏
Hopefully gonna swap my 3.5 cam into my 3.2 engine..is it possible??they look the same but I expect more lift on the 3.5..also the 3.5 cam rod doesn't have the Allen ends,the 3.2 shafts did..guessing they knock out like the 3.2..yes I'll check piston valve clearance n pray that's OK just be a hotter cam install..
Yes it's possible! Most if not all m30 heads are interchangeable except the early cams that use the distributor shaft. First fives has an excellent write up on the differences in cams and heads that was very useful to us when doing these swaps at home! www.firstfives.org/faq/cylinder_head/cylinder_head_faq.htm
Thanks.Email to him wouldn't work..but I'm going along n have both cams out..I'm just worried about cam valve piston interference issues..I just got my gasket kit and new head bolts so I'm still in the fixing process..thanks for any help.
