    WTB Parts for E30 M50 swap, Los Angeles

    I need the following parts for a project I am working on:

    -M50B25 from an E34 preferably, must have a good head, either rebuilt or low miles
    -M52B28 aluminum block from a Z3 2.8
    -E34 or E36 M50 smog equipment, probably best if someone has parts so I can just pull what I need as I'm not entirely sure what this all entails as of yet, however I do know I need it.
    -E34 throttle cable
    -E34 oil pan and associated necessary e34 parts like the dipstick and pickup
    -E36 engine mount arms
    -E30 325i flywheel, either lightweight aluminum or stock but in good condition
    -E30 early fuel tank, pre 87, in good shape
    -E36 M3 transmission in excellent condition
    -LSD 2.93 that will fit my E30 M3

    NEW STUFF I NEED
    -E30 ellipsoid headlight brackets, just the brackets
    -E30 radiator mounts (different than M3?)
    -Clock for the OBC spot (don't eta's come with this?)

    Located in Los Angeles. Would like to pickup everything locally. Let me know what you got.

        Would like to try to get everything locally first as I would like to see what I am buying. Any locals?

          why do you want an e36 throttle cable?!? Also the m3 uses the ZF transmission just like the 328i so no need to limit yourself.

            If you buy Polak's 3.25 LSD I will trade you my 2.93 straight across for it.

              The E36 throttle cable works fine.

                The e34 cable works better. The only reason i could see using the e36 one is if you already have it. If you are buying one then go with the e34.

                  I read the E34 cable is too short, maybe this info is wrong?

                    This sounds good. I'll talk to Chris about that.

                        BUMP

                        Really need a fuel tank locally and an E34 pan etc. and throttle cable. I may have purchased an engine and tranny. Still looking for the alloy block. UK guys with any bare blocks? I'd be interested in those as well.
