SOLD!
It’s time to let this project get the home it deserves. Anybody that wants to swap an M5x motor this is your car. I've been slowly collecting parts to get the car in good shape and to get ready for the swap. I have been driving it daily about 30mi/day, occasional issue at like 75% throttle, if you lift and get back on it it's ok. I take it pretty easy on it though. I've lost interest in this project and it needs to go to someone that will do it right.
