Getting things sorted in the free M20

After arriving home and unloading the engine I started to assemble all the other tools I have to move and work on it. The engine hoist is going to need some new casters and upon raising the engine I remembered that you need a set of longer bolts to actually use the stand! Quick trip to the hardware store to get heavy chain, S hooks and some good bolts....

The engine came with a old ANSA header (BW 1781?) for the 323i. It's still solid except for the very end where it attached to the center pipes/ resonator. That can be fixed. Fan clutch is good, but only for my '80 not the '82. The alternator appears fried since it's not able to be spun, but maybe salvagable. Plug wires appear to be the BavAuto set. Not a bad haul and it has some potential. The oil pan took a good solid hit at some point.
