The guy at safe and sounds great. My dad took his esc cos there for a clifford. We went down when he was halfway through it. My dad nearly fainted when he saw half the dash out and wires everywhere

How does the 3 door compare to your old m3 carlo?

all i can say is, slightly lower than standard comp ratio, greys, t38, on 4x4 inlet i guess, not sure what ex manifold ? could be either !
set of cams, long studded, wrc gasket !

thats all i can think of not much help eh ?
