Hello all! I am currently interested in purchasing an e30 and doing a full restoration and m50 engine swap (plus a few other mods like full audio system). I have been on these forums for weeks now building interest and gaining insight. I have spent countless days learning all about the M50 engine and the requirements for the swap. This is my first post here on r3v...never thought to make an account until now. Just thought I would start my own thread not only to guide everyone through my build, but also in the hopes of receiving some help and input from others who have already performed the swap. I am currently looking at a 1987 325e for my donor chassis. I have also found several people in the Baltimore, MD area selling M50's. I hope to buy the donor car in the next week or two to get started! I plan to take full documentation of everything I do so that others can benefit from my build as well. Look forward to meeting everyone, and thanks for bearing with me on this build! I am sure I will have many questions.

Our builds will be going on at the same time. I just bought a 91 318i. I finished the audio a few days ago, and I'm pulling an s50 in about two months. I'll be using the car as my daily and gathering everything I need for the swap. Once I have everything and the s50 is rebuilt I'll be taking a week off work and doing the whole swap.
