Im 5'6" and i have to buy large jackets Am i a fat b*stard

Thanks for the comments guys, it not an overly complicated conversion, most of the time spent is actually researching what will fit where and modifying the cooling system from mechanical to electronic, the engine wiring loom has been modified to just plug and play Bar that its just bolting stuff off, cleaning painting and bolting it back on again

To be fair the car was in excellent shape when i bought it cosmetically and mechanically, its more of a quest for power than anything else and the "M50 2.8" engine converion is really well documented. I just thought while its out i may aswell do a few others jobs, new brake lines, clean and repaint everything, re-dye the leather etc

Thanks for the comments guys, quite a better reception than i expected on a bike forum As for te soft top it only comes out in summer (so not very often) and i use so we can enjoy a day out as a family as opposed to just taking one of the kids on the bike

I bought myself a weekend car a year or so ago that had already had quite a bit of work done and had been magaiine featured. After a few months of very content weekend "poncing" i felt the urge for more power so i set about an engine conversion which im currently halfway through. Shes a 1989 BMW E30 325i cabriolet, and shes about to receive a 1998 328 sport lump with a few performance upgrades Here she is when i bought her http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/DSC02029.jpg http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/2109929-8-2.jpg http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/2109929-4-1.jpg And this is what she looks like now http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/e30%20build/504c1844.jpg http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/e30%20build/d287771b.jpg And heres the new donk, 2.8l sport, uprated intake manifold, modified exhaust manifolds, big bore throttle body, uprated injectors, lightened flywheel and competion clutch, Z4 3.0 msport shortshift kit etc etc estimated 240 BHP + 100 bhp wet shot nitrous oxide Before me http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/e30%20build/IMG_0306.jpg After me http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/e30%20build/72871f24.jpg http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/e30%20build/5b6032e1.jpg http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb142/fastlad999/e30%20build/709e3fa9.jpg
