In this episode, I start by taking the main parts to for machining. They will be filming the entire process as I cannot due to insurance reasons. That video is coming soon! I then start sorting through all of the parts left for me to restore or replace. I then realize how boring it would be to see each process done on 40 parts. So I decided to restore one thing at a time starting with the rocker cover. The thing that started restore it off. Enjoy!

So some of you are rightfully confused about the touring and the 325i Sport. Just to clear it up... This is the engine from the touring. I own the black 325i sport and the silver touring. I have already restored the engine from the 325i sport before I started youtube. I'm now, more thoroughly restoring the engine from the touring to put into the 325i sport, because of how more through this restoration is going to be. I will return the old engine from the 325i back into the touring at the end of this series. I hope this clears it up :)
