Fun collection. Why the hoodpins on the beater? We just got a little M10 318 that's all stripped down with a track suspension/brake setup that we use at DEs--fun cars to toss around.

For style of course! The laches didnt work, pop rivets sheerd. The 318is is an M42 motor, a bit more powerful then the m10's, not by much tho. I have had two old 318i's both went over 250k before they went to the yard. Watch out for the #2 rod bearing!

The 318 is disposable basically. If the motor goes, we could sell all the parts off of it for more than we paid for the thing or we could build up a stock 2L with all the parts sitting in the garage. Right now, we're more worried about the crank in the racecar, and getting that bottom end back together.

Is it me, or are your tires really small on your E30?
