One of your members here named 'speedhop' is about the be M30'ized. Got the old 2.5 pulled out just the other day.
M30 from a 89' 735i (Rebuilt with new rings, bearings, reconditioned, polished and shot-peened rods, Polished and chamfered crankshaft, timing chain guides and tensioner, valve job, surface, etc..)
E28 535i 5 speed manual, stock clutch setup. All new seals, shift console bushings, etc..
Driveshaft appears to be a mystery driveshaft, big flange up front. Possibly mid 86 E30 325? Waiting to get the engine and trans in place so we can get it measured, shortened if needed and fully rebuilt and balanced.
E28 radiator?
Factory 325i wiring harness, someone told him it will work, we shall see. And the 535 Ecm.
Hoping to at least have this bitch shoved in and mounted this Saturday. It seems for so many people who have done this swap there is a wide variety of ways in which this setup works. Kinda making it up as we go. I will be happy when this one is done with.
