I'm only an apprentice still learning as I go but so far I've done a car or two. The real Master is in Austin and I can only hope to someday do half as good a job as he does (what's up T). As for me I really enjoy spending time in garage turning an ugly duckling into a beautiful swan, so to speak. Won't touch anything Asian or American as I don't do it for money. Below are a few cars I've done ... several others too but you get the pic. Next few weeks working on several more Porsches will post them up on here too.

Oops disregard the first pic of GT3. Just remembered that one was from my old iPhone pic I took. Out of all the above the GT3 came out the best spent about 10-12 hours or so on it.
Bad thing is I only took pics with iPhone so they suck.

It's not that hard, the only thing about it right now is that it's so damn hot to be sitting in the car running wires thru it.

Gents, could you kindly recommend a shop or even a mechanic who has experience adjusting valves on the S54? I'm new to the BMW scene so I want to make sure I use someone GOOD.

Thanks in advance.

***EDIT***

Forgot to add, I am in the DFW area.
