Nice - cracking engine that 3.0. Mrs had a Z3 for a little bit and it was a sweet little thing.
Took the Fury out for a spin yesterday...nothing blew up and although I was very circumspect with the loud pedal, it blew the tyres off from a 35mph roll with a quick stab of gas. Can't be bad.
Valve noise is still louder than I expected, I went through and reset the lash which didn't really make any difference. It's also still overheating after a while - seems to sit around 170-180 but once it gets over 180 it's straight up to 200 and not slowing. I've got plain distilled water and rust remover in it at the moment, so I can take that out and hopefully some good coolant and a new rad cap might make the difference.
It's surging a bit on light loads which I think is the EFI self tune learning, that just needs more miles.
