Got a kit from treehouse racing a few years back. Took the adapter plate for the 3.5 inch 740i throttle body and bore matched it to the M50 manifold. Kit comes with M50 manifold and 3.5 inch Throttle body and cable for a E30. See pictures below. Looking to see how much this is worth in the e30 community.

Hardest part was fabbing a new throttle cable mount/stop.

I used the E34 throttle cable everyone uses for 24v swap (it was long enough) and rerouted it coming up from below the intake on the left side of TB. Iirc I modified a bracket (using the stock OBDI TB bracket) to act as the throttle stop and firmly bolted it to the left manifold support bracket.
Took some fiddling but works smoothly and properly operates the 540 TB through the full range of motion.
FYI this TB is overkill unless like me you already have other supporting mods like cams, 3.5 maf, intake, headers, exhaust, chip, injectors, etc....
