This first post will be updated periodically. There will be plenty of pics, detailed instructions and I'll do my best to answer everyone's questions.
So here's my parts list:

To add to the list, I already have in storage, an Expansion Tank, Cap, and 1 Gal. BMW Blue coolant. I will also tackle the dreaded Oil Filter Housing Gasket replacement, and replacing my Intake CPS O-ring (which I got for free from BMW of Bel Air :))
I've already replaced the Upper Radiator Hose after I overfilled the Expansion Tank and it (the hose) sprung a leak at the elbow.
The front clip, headlights, bumper, radiator support, radiator and other pieces will be removed to allow easier access to the task at hand. So that alone will be a DIY.
As always, I appreciate any recommendations to the list, but please keep any BS and Off topic comments to a bare minimum!
