    Euro S50 gearbox offset

    Hi mates!
    I'm still in the swap process from the m50 to the euro s50 but I recently found something that is grinding my gears...

    The engine I bought came without a transmission,so I found a 328i one,but it came with the small flange,so I ended buying another one out of an e36 325tds and fitted it to the engine.

    But got some troubles with it

    -The bolts that attach the tranny to the gearbox won't be aligned totally and the gearbox is currently with some offset.

    -I've shimmed quite a LOT the exhaust motor mount trying to get solved the issue,and kind of sorted it,but definitely not happy running 8shims on the mount.


    Any thoughts?

    thanks in advance!

    If so I would check your pan clearance on your steering rack. It was my issue.
