NEW PROJECT CAR! Can We Save This Old M3 From the Scrap Yard?

Knuckle Busters : Season 1 , Episode 1

July 18, 2018

Welcome to Knuckle Busters: the show where we take our builds to the next level by involving actual experts. In this episode, we introduce you to our new just-missed-the-junkyard BMW e36 M3 project car, and the engine that’s going to save it. Danger Dan tells us why we chose to go V8 over the stock lump. And Vin takes a trip to Edelbrock USA to start the engine build - and learns all about camshaft science in the process.
