The Teflon seals are a bit nerve-wracking the first time, but all the help here on NAM3Forum and Beisan Systems helps a lot. I’m a sucker for nice precision parts, and damn that Beisan hub is nice.
The Beisan guide advocates using a genuine BMW timing bridge due to others not being precise enough. I got a Schwaben through turner and it has a small amount of slop. Is that going to be an issue?

Man do you have a dedicated thread to those underbelly pans? Nice work, would love to see more details. I have a soft spot for functional racecar fab work and that certainly looks like a cool project to me.

That said, for the price, the quality is not there. This exact kit can be found without a Schwaben sticker for half the price. Might try to exchange for a genuine BMW tool.

PO did plates and I just ignored the problem. Cracks all closed up nicely when I put jacks on the subframe mounts though, so I've got it all welded up and reinforced from above now. Time to put it back in the snow

Engine runs perfect so there’s one positive data point on the Schwaben tool.
