Luckily for me the previous owner of the car was a older gentleman who took pretty decent care of the car so the Timing Chain Guides was taken care of 55k miles ago. He wanted to keep his E38 and only sold it because he ended up picking up a slightly newer 7 Series (E65) and didn't want to financially maintain 2 7er BMWs.

So far i got it going in a great direction mechanically. Next issue is shaking close to idle and up to 2k rpm. anything past 2k RPM and the shaking disappears.

So will be tackling that issue this weekend
