Update: after resolving an issue with a 5,500rpm fuel cut, the car just keeps getting better. I'm installing a Dakota digital speedo corrector for the second 48t speed input (e30 is 9t only) and a rear o2 bung. After that I should have no fault codes and will actually hook up the check eng light. COP kit installed. I Still a few bugs though, My idle is not great. The idle control is working as can bee seen by the bump when the car is moving. It acts like it just can't move enough air to feed the cams. Turning the ac on will kill it . It will also need a tune since the top end is lean. The lifters are noisy, and it could be that reground cam or the valves that were topped when they ground the faces. Either way, I have a full s52 33mm bucket and beehive spring upgrade in the mix and will inspect everything when apart. Hopefully just the lifters. Swaps are definitely complicated, but the results are well worth it.
