Tip: at around 13:17 you are punching the holes with the gasket paper on the vise. This will definitely blunt your punch! Use wood or better yet a piece of Ertalon to put under the paper. Ertalon is hard enough to allow a good cut with 1-2 knocks AND soft enough to let the sharp edge go slightly through without damaging it!
Good point Robert! It's like using a glass cutting board when slicing veggies. The glass will actually dull your knife over time because glass is harder than steel.
Beautiful job! It's most likely a lot more work to film this way, but this style of video takes me back to some of your original work. Close-ups, slow panning; I love it.
This is terrific content and I'm very jealous of the space you have! Where are the videos continuing the build? I can't seem to find them for this engine?
Love your videos. Have you seen all these new dry ice cleaning systems? They might be worthwhile to look at for future projects where you might not want to repaint something.
Empressive job dude. The moment when u forgot to put the intake manifold gasket... You are doing great work I also love to restore cars I maintain my car by my own.... And thanks for uploading the video early as I demand in previous video.... Love from Pakistan...
Hi! Nice video as always. I am curious about one thing. Do you need to do some kind of paperwork to get that "new" engine in your car and be streatable?
please send me the link to part 5 and 6 of the rest of this restoration . it has been very helpful and this has been the most complete e30 m40 316i engine rebuild iv found on RUclips and has been extremely detailed .
Hello man, really nice restoration, grats! I'd like to ask you something: what kinda of passivating agent did you use after zinc electroplating? And what electrolite for zinc? Thanks in andvance for the reply!
Nice job, it looks really good. Have you ever considered soda blasting the throttle body, I think it would look as good as the rest of the assembly if you did.
Project is coming along quite well brother. Anyway you could help me find one of those gasket tools kits? I do restorations as well and that would do wonders
Hacéis un gran trabajo, en general, muy buen contenido, he observado que habéis puesto las aspas del ventilador centrífugo por detrás del viscoso y realmente van por delante, aunque es un fallo menor, que pa todos los que hemos cambiado el viscoso alguna vez nos ha pasado o nos pasará!! Jejejeje
Have you priced a laser cutter for this application? Equipment like that tends to be extremely pricey. Which types of gaskets will it work with? Not all gaskets are the same. A laser cutter might not be a practical tool for every application. I am pretty sure that unless he is replacing a large number of these, and by sheer coincidence they all happen to be compatible with this laser cutter, if I were rebuilding just one or two cars at a time, buying an oem gasket is far more cost effective than buying some high tech and expensive equipment that will not see much use in a small volume workshop
Just a recommendation, at 13:10 when using (hole punch?) put something soft underneath like wood or leather so you don't dull the punch.
We use a high-durometer rubber plate at work.
you can also use a plastic cutting board from Ikea for a few euro/pounds/dollars

Not sure why you don't have more likes on this comment... seen lots of mistakes in this video but.... aleast it'll look nice....

My man, invest in an ultra sonic cleaner. It will pay for itself in one build
The one particular thing he does for rebuilds I find interesting is the cleaning and re-Zincing the fastening hardware. That's really cool process
Great video, but I think you put the fan clutch backwards :)
I did! haha.. All sorted now. Cheers!
@@RestoreIt 2 years later no rebuild? where is the video bro, we invested time
Damn that’s lookin good. Impressive how seamlessly everything fits back together.
I was hoping you hadn't forgotten the E30. I appreciate old Mercedes but I LOVE late 20th century old BMWs.
It’s the small details that count and take a long time to perfect but you make it look easy I envy that
Love your attention to details.👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Dan!
внимание к деталям? он вентилятор собрал неправильно
There's good potential for upgrades in the intake while you're in there!
Nice Work! As always, impressive.
Thanks Patrick!
Beautiful job! It's most likely a lot more work to film this way, but this style of video takes me back to some of your original work. Close-ups, slow panning; I love it.
Looking perfect already!
Excellent restoration
Will the dirt removal contribute to advanced weight reduction? Anyways great work
Not really. It might shed a few ounces but nothng really worth celebrating.
At £50, you got a bargain there! Good job as always!
Also I'd be interested after blasting and wire wheeling the gasket surfaces how far out of tolerance they are fromm flat
Or how much sand it ingested
Great Editing and content once again.
Where's the rest of this series?
Nor sure what’s more satisfactory: unmasking or sandblasting 😊. Awesome job
Dá gosto de ver uma restauração desse nível! 👏👏
great work - I look forward to the next couple of videos.
11:44 will use this on my future e30
Excellent masterpiece video.
Love the touring chassis, waiting for the next clip)
Beautiful work! I love that warm grey color you use!
Didnt expect to be this early
Cheers dude!
Great work mate looks stunning.
Very satisfying to watch.
you are prefect in assembling Bro...🤩

amazing job cant wait for more thanks buddy stay safe until next time
Brilliant stuff well done mate.
Nice video !! One quenstion what gap diid you set between then throttle plate and the housing thank you in advance !!!
Awesome attention to detail! Congrats on the hard work and keep it up

Thank u so much. My m40 needs this as soon as I gt some time. Very good restore.u make it so easy n knowing I hv the same engine 💯👌😁
Press like before watching ))
Awesome video, like usual. One thing i did notice, i think you've mounted the fan differently to how it was.
Nice work again.
Do you need something else (different pressure regulator/fuel pump, ECU update ) when using M50/M52 injectors ?

How do you dispose of the plating solution once it is no longer fit for use?
Hello man, really nice restoration, grats! I'd like to ask you something: what kinda of passivating agent did you use after zinc electroplating? And what electrolite for zinc? Thanks in andvance for the reply!
No thread locker on the fan clutch screws? Brave!
Have you the link also for the primer that you use?
What's about the end of the project, remounting everything in the engine bay?
Bro? Did you sand blast the injectors o-ring mating surface?
Looking great
Nice job, it looks really good. Have you ever considered soda blasting the throttle body, I think it would look as good as the rest of the assembly if you did.
Is there rest of these videos or just 4 parts
THe correct way to restore the manifold is vapor blasting. Dry blasting is creating pores in the casting.
Have you not thought about vapour blasting the alloy parts ?
When are the newer episodes coming out ? Is the car complete, and the engine? Great series and detail.
The car is currently as you see it in the episodes. The latest episode is being filmed as I type this. Cheers!
There's some really good tips in the comments, Restore It! We can all learn from other people who have a little more experience than us.
Well done again nice looking job budd 👍
It seems like these days you have a more practical outlook about parts which should be restored and which ones should just be replaced.
Check the fan clutch, the installed position is wrong ( 5:20 to 15:55 )
When will you publish final episode of e30 m40?
Great job as usual!!! Do you have ideas on what could be your next project after you finish this?
Project is coming along quite well brother. Anyway you could help me find one of those gasket tools kits? I do restorations as well and that would do wonders
Man I love you so much l like this job its very nice good luck with your job
Man I can’t find part 5 and 6. Are they out?
Can an M40 fuel regulator fit in on an M10??
Great video 👍
hi what material did u use to make the gasket for throttle body and where did you order those injectors
Did you media blast the fuel rail? Sounds like a bad idea
what happened to 325i sport restoration?
So, I think it's was good idea save the old engine
Great video as always,you keep out doing your self.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Is that light colour (I’m colourblind) the correct one for the manifold? I thought it would be silver or mat black. Nice work though.
hey, when episode 5 will come out?
Beautiful work!
Can you share the link of the injectors.
I love watching these videos but it’s crazy to see how not easy bmw designed everything lmao
Did you ever finish ?
Wow that Emmanuel guy sure has a lot of cars
Cool 😎
We need update for this engine video's
Did the injectors work? Anyone know
Great job! Was there any need to clean the tubes, on which the injectors sit, from the inside? If so, how did/would you do it?
What did it cost in parts ?
dry ice blasting ftw
Where's the link for those injectors
awesome content, i see you use titan lube. are they any good i see them here by us and want to change from castrol to them on my e46?
Hacéis un gran trabajo, en general, muy buen contenido, he observado que habéis puesto las aspas del ventilador centrífugo por detrás del viscoso y realmente van por delante, aunque es un fallo menor, que pa todos los que hemos cambiado el viscoso alguna vez nos ha pasado o nos pasará!! Jejejeje
what's the color on the intake manifold? is it the stock color? great video!
Beautiful
17:47 I was waiting for the scene to turn red and start trembling @Geoffrey Croker!
will there be another episode? :c
De 10 👏🏻👏🏻,pero cuando nos muestras un coche terminado
You should get one of those laser cutters for gaskets, as many as you use it ought to pay for itself in a short time.

A laser cutter might not be a practical tool for every application.

Me: No way he can restore this
Restore It: Hold my engine
When will be the next episode?
The fan on the viskomufta was installed incorrectly!
why not paint the throttle body as well?
Wow i Love it a very very good Job Love it ❤️👍👍❤️
this require mechanical skills to restore this..god job bro..keep it up.
