          I'm surprised more M62 pre-vanos swaps are not out there. Seriously heavy duty torque and pretty impressive HP can be made with these, especially if one strokes it with commonly availalble factory parts. Can easily be run on simple standalones too, or, wiring is easy for stock computers....the earlier M60's even having Miller WAR chip tune-ability I believe.

          S62 is more likely, as its front sumped, flashes are out there, but still not cheap.
          Just as I can supply software flashes for the s54 swap, I can do it for the S62. It's almost the exact same software and DME. And I have chips for M60 swaps or can perform a remote tune if required.

                I'd have to go with the M54/S54. Its the next step in engineering, and getting cheaper by the month. Gotta learn to crawl before you can run.

                  Mark,

                  Details please? I am sure many of us that are in the middle or finishing these swaps are interested. What options/tunes do you have to offer?

                  Thanks!

                          I am waiting for a N20 short block to pop up, I am going to rebuild one and run it as an N/A build.

                          Yeh that is right, N/A N20 motherfuckers.

                              I was looking around some wondering, "why don't more people swap in LS's?"

                              And then I found the thread where the guy had to swap to a hydroboosted brake setup and relocate it to behind the headlight through a linkage system running through the frame.

                              Has anyone figured out a better solution, or is that the best way to do it?

                                you can do a masterless brake setup. It's not my preference though.
