The BMW 535i SPEC clutch kit

Turbo oil drain mod to AN-10
Universal all aluminium radiator trial install
Making the spacer for the clutch release bearing , since the BMW setup had to be moved further forward than the stock setup (this was actually the first attempt which was too thin - I made my 2nd and final one too thick as it was easier to adjust externally that way)

Engine + gearbox are back in the car and bolted in. Have started the engine..still have shifter rods, clutch slave cylinder, radiator etc to hook up.
