Well, the main purpose of this club/forum was to get away from the douchebags on BFC. There's not a lot of love for 4-cyl's on there.

Keep us updated on your M42 project here! I'm in Socal for school, and I definitely want to check out your motor in person!

I checked out yer thread on bf.C ...yer parts look good.

I read the reply that was given in the bf. I am new here but can say is that the peole that seem to be there are all about there own and do not seem to care or help other bimmerphiles. All they want to do is compare theres to yours and "THRASH'' on your for doing something new. I have been a member for about a week now and these guys here have lots of knowledge and are more than willing to share it with you whenever they can. That is why this thread was started in my opinion. As it was said before there are alot of rebuilds going on here including myself so keep us updated. Have a god one
