It is best to lift the head with somebody else, getting it out should be ok, but putting it in can be a bit of a task alone.

When it works, it is awesome, but it doesn't always work. Would defo say get the mbc and spilt second aic (which i am ordering in jan, let me who if you want one, we save on shipping :thumb:) I learnt a lot about the kit and installing its whilst rebuilding mine (still in progress, getting to...

thanks for this info, this is what i needed to know. By the sound of it i not going ahead then, a little too costly (money & time) for my right now. Going to get a 3.2L and just her up and running quickly.

You were correct about the lower compression, but tt managed this by shortening the con rods slightly. I had read the need for this can be overcome by using a spilt second aic, and setting the afr properly. if this is cannot be done I could swap the rods from the 320 to the 36 assuming they...

I have searched alot for this with no avail, but still i do apologise if i have missed the answer somewhere. short version: I have the an original hughes turbo technics conversion, but the engine is knackered, so i am going to get new engine for it. I know a conversion from a m104 e320 (HFM)...

Here is a pic of the whole head. on closer inspection another 2 are ever so slightly oval and not round. i have circled the one shown in the previous post.

I lie, they are 2 piece alloys, not 3. spoke with akash today to, but he send it hard to do 2 piece rims.

Hi all, as some of you know i am doing the head gasket on my w124 e320 TT. I have dismantled everything and got the head off cleaned it up a little but i need your opinion on if it is ok or not. There are two issues, main is highlighted below. I have to options, either get a new head for...

drop me a pm if you still need one, have one off my old engine.

Thanks for the info guys, has helpe out alot, i will get on the phone to a few of this lot over the next few days. i am sure they are 3 piece.

That is a very nice car!!!!! extremely impressed with how clean it is.

Does anybody know of anyone who can redo my split rims, they are original aero 2, and both of the front two alloys are cracked. I don't really wannt to get them weldEd as they are spilts, but I can find anyone who can source the inner rim and rebuild them. Any ideas?

Thanks for advice, but it is definitely the gasket. coolant goes straight into the engine and out through the oil drain plug. I m going to open it up tommorow and see what's what. Never done a gasket before so it should be interesting. While im at it, im going to add a mbc for the turbos...

Yep, still has the original piggy back ecu. BUT i am wanting to change it, my thinking at the moment is why not get rid of it and just increase the injector duration of the other 6? alternatively i most prob get a spiltsecond system or something similar.

Hi, I recently got a e320 twin turbo (one of the original huges of beaconsfield), i have been having a few issues with it since i brought it and working my way through them, but today it developed a big problem. I am getting steam from the rear right of the engine combined with a whining...

I have a full set, they need a refurb though, they genuine MB, 15", i know that at least 1 has a new-ish trye, not sure about the other 3. PM me if interested.

I crack the corner a little bit when removing, so sorry no point in having it.

im in coventry, £125 and its yours. i will take it off the car for you. when can you, or your friend collect?

Here a pic of one i have going. it is from a 95 plate, e320 coupe. should be the same. It is in good condition. not marks or scratches and is original MB, there is a little bit of milkyness on one side in the corner, as shown in the pic. Will need to know today or tomorrow though at the...
