Hi,

Couple of pics of my old shed.

E30 M3 S54 CSL engine.

You will need to alter the bulkhead
and G/box tunnel to get the
6 pot sat back similar to this.

Regards,

The Gorilla.

Hi,

When the CSL lump is sorted then you can
start to prepare the rest of the
E30 M3 to make it work.

Regards,

The Gorilla.

That a diff oil cooler there Mr G ?

Hi,

MattCSLNutt- yes its a bit of mix and match
to say the least.

DuncanR- Yes, runs a Diff cooler and g/box cooler.

DTM boys back in 92/93 had the G/box and Diff
all cooled by a water heat exchanger.

I run 2 small Mocal Oil/water Heat exchangers for the Dry
Sump set up, as it helps keep the oil at around 90 deg no
matter what sillyness the Primate gets up to.

Experimenting with a Larger Heat exchanger on
the Merc 190 2.5 16v.

Merc gets some 'M' Parts as well via 4 50mm S54
ITB's and E46 M3 Front hubs and Hamann Coilovers
with a Z3 2.7 Lock to lock rack, ala CSL ratio.

Regards,

The Gorilla.
