I'll be honest I didn't search. I'm just thinking about this recently......What do I need, besides the engine. Can I bolt this onto the M20's trans? Driveshafts? Engine and trans mounts? Everything else I can figure out.

I'm going to get teh M/S installed on the M20 this summer and get used to working with it, before installing either a turbo or M50/52

Wow, never had a thread like this before.

[DSP74]

Yeah I can imagine. I thought maybe someone could give the 30 second run down and save me an hour of searching.......If you never discussed things that have already been discussed ALL boards would be dead eventually.......But I guess tomorrow I'll search.

Just read the sticky... it's all basically in there.

Sure it will! I've done it! But you need a tranny mount from a Lada, the driveshaft from a 1965 SL300 and a brake booster from a 993 twin turbo (grab the radiator too, the big one).

And the rack and pinion from an e28 and the spark plugs from a 1986 300D and the ABS unit from an e21...

I'm not a noob to forums, just this. I thought maybe someone could give the quick rundown. Now I know how the noob's feel when I blow them the same shit....Oh well, should have known.

everyone on here had to read the completely shit "comprehensive thread" its prolly the worst most unorganized thread i have ever seen since ive had the internet and it leaves out so much. but the search bar is your friend.

[DSP74]

Well I don't have my son, tonight, the GF is working late tonight so I guess the search is on.
So far I have E28 535 engine mounts-I'll search for poly later
E36 318/325 TRANS

it's missing some info, but it should be good enough to get started on buying parts.
