Ep.24 Preparing to drop in the S50B32 into the E30 M3 Pickup

[@dan725]

Man that engine bay is looking FRESH. I’d probably just stare at it for hours if I had the skills and effort to do something similar to my car haha.

[@blacknightcreations]

I got the missus up to the workshop in between spraying and filming just to look at it and show her. I’m sure you’d be fine with skill but boy is there a lot of effort

[@dan725]

@@blacknightcreations I’d probably sleep inside of it like a kid who made their first model plane given how proud you must be of your work! And You should be proud! This project is coming along awesome, and you’re the envy of many!!!

[@Egsgsgss]

Fully sick!

[@bimmerflex5526]

Awesome progress again. Engine bay tidied up nicely. It’s the best project build on KZbin. 🇬🇧❤

[@blacknightcreations]

Of course I’m biased but I definitely agree.

[@DuBstep115]

Sad to see that your YT as not taken off, good job still

[@blacknightcreations]

All in good time. I think once I have my other rear quarter and can make the car look like a complete Ute the channel will pick up

[@DuBstep115]

@@blacknightcreations Best of luck

[@Gary_Guttz]

Looking awesome! Can’t wait to see it running!

[@blacknightcreations]

If we get a bunch of people to push we could make it looks like it’s running

[@Gary_Guttz]

@@blacknightcreations hahahaha zooooooom!

Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago. Great episode, keep up the good work. Don't beat yourself up too much.....

[@blacknightcreations]

That’s awesome, still crazy seeing where people are watching from.

[@juliadanvers6653]

Getting it to 'engine in' is an amazing achievement. Once again, great problem solving.

[@blacknightcreations]

Took a while but it’s finally in!

[@juliadanvers8862]

What an accomplishment to get that engine in!

[@davebartram1732]

Here in the uk 🇬🇧 here, watched all your vids on this, can’t believe you have to get engineers to sign everything off, here in uk do your mods , do or don’t tell insurance what you done for them to double your insurance and away you go, Class build this tho and going to look class 👍

[@blacknightcreations]

People definitely do modify cars that way but if you get pulled over you’ll have to get the car inspected. It’s easier to just do everything properly form the start.

[@s.w.1981]

Great a New Video 👍 im Waiting so long of a new Video

[@blacknightcreations]

I’ve been trying to get them out a little quicker, glad you’re enjoying them

[@ProbablyJosh672]

10/10 intro and as always extremely solid video, stoked with how well the build and the channel are going mate keep it up !

[@nigeltrigger4499]

Project coming along nicely! What sort of power will the engine develop?

[@blacknightcreations]

I can ask the person I bought it from but without putting it in the dyno I can’t tell just yet

[@adamskee]

engine looks awesome in the car, making progress bro.

[@blacknightcreations]

Hoping the next few weeks keeps the progress moving!

[@auspuffgerausche7182]

Definitely consider aftermarket ecu if you are adding a carbon airbox in the future, with MAP sensor. Stock ecu with tuning chip does a mediocre job. If you don't get enough clearance with the headers, you can get e30 swaybar spacers to give more clearance. AKG also make some nice e30 s50 engine mounts as well. Good job so far.

[@blacknightcreations]

I do want to add a carbon airbox in the future but it all comes down to budget at this stage. I’ll have a look into those engine mounts, not completely happy with the meyle ones I have

[@phatputer]

Have a nosy what Mighty Car Mods did for their E30 diff, It looked like a solid replacement option with more modern solutions already designed and in Aus

[@blacknightcreations]

I’ve been collecting bit and piece, I have an e36 dual mount rear hat that fits a medium case, an LSD centre and 3.15 gears. Just need to get everything to fit

[@phatputer]

@@blacknightcreations That was ultimately my end game for mine, far less modifications, but was certainly interesting to see what has been built using other manufacturers stuff that is more available

[@blacknightcreations]

I watched the MCM e30 series and I think their setup would have been a little pricier than the setup I’m going to go with. Maybe in a future build I can look into newer options.

[@phatputer]

Good to know, I hadn't even priced it up given the suppliers were all from Australia and attempting to send over the ditch to NZ would have been prohibitive@@blacknightcreations

[@ventohitam]

kudos to you from brunei ❤ about the music, you dont wanna use non copyright music? i think theres no issue with that

[@blacknightcreations]

I want to use smaller bands to hopefully get them some exposure.

[@adelittle4099]

Bmw never did do a great job on the sealer back in the day but im sure your hard work will pay off making it look cleaner👌🏻keep @ it workshop lewis its looking epic so far 🫡👍👍👍
