I crawled under my <un-modified> ' 88 528e 5spd, cleaned the tag and read it:
" S3.25 2822 " . The born-on date is 10/87 from my frame tag in the door.
I shift in 1st at about 25, if really pushing it (4500) and the next thing
ya'know, I'm in third and doing around 60 and have gone about a block and a
