    A whole different kind of 24v swap...

    Pic attached. :pimp:

    It's not mine, but I helped pull it this morning. It may not even be going into an e30... ever start a project with a motor but no car?

      I've seen pictures of V12 powered E30s, but I still don't believe it can be done... at least not without a shitload of money and/or mad fabrication skills. This should be fun :pimp:

          Incredibly advanced for it's time. Throttle-by-wire, HFMs, all alloy block... VERY hot.

                    About 30 lbs more than an M50.

                      andy put one into an e36 a while back. i remember walking into his shop and wondering why the exhaust manifold was on the left side......oops.....it was on the left AND right side. if it fits the e36....it should fit the e30. only an inch or two difference. cheers, jason

                        Oh dear. 99% of those things in service right now are terrible nightmares. I'd hate to be you when you need to replace parts on the thing, with what they cost you'd think the engine was built by eight year old pygmies using unobtanium.

                              The E36 W/ the V12 is here in Wilmington, NC. AKG built it. The former owner also had a euro S50 in an E30 and a 4.5V8 in an E30. I think the new owner of all three is selling them all.
