oil pan

[Hartge H26]

I know there are thousands of threads of e30 24v conversion but I have 1 simple question:

which oil pans from which cars and which years work when doing the conversion. I have a s52 and am not doing the work, just sourcing th necessary parts.

thanks

Are you serious?

Come on man, this is covered literally thousands of times with exact years and models which work. It honestly takes less time and effort to search it then it does for you to create this thread.

525i E34. Oil sump has to be at the front of the engine appose to the E36 which is at the rear. You will also need the e34 oil pick up tube and dip stick/dip stick housing.

thank you again

again, c'mon

you should know that 1989-1990 E34 525is were M20 cars.

1991-1992 were M50B25NV, 1993-1995 were M50B25TU, ether of those will work.

You could buy one of these subframes and use the stock oil pan on your M/S5x motor.
