S38 e30 engine mounts and stock exhaust manifold

[e30m3ochoa]

Ok guys, I know this has been covered many times but I am looking to see if any of you guys out there have put the e34 m5 exhaust manifold into an e30. I want to see if there is any fitment issues and if there is a special mount that can be bought in order to do this. I do understand that 300mm.de has mounts but they are primarily for either the m88 manifold or sport headers and won't work with the original manifold. Any information will be very helpful to me.

Thanks guys.

I am running the 300mm.de mounts and the original S38 M5 manifold with no issues.

I did also on my S38B38,, no problem at all...... LHD car

I had to grind away some,, and welded it again together,, it was just not that much material left

Which set are you running from 300mm.de. the 2.2 or the 2.3 mounts?

Awesome man, using the rubbers you get from them or using other ones?

I'm actually using solid mounts.

Hi.
which mounts do you use in this s38b38 - e30 conversion?
From s38 or from e30?

You might have to make your own. I made my for my s38 turbo m3.

I am studying this project too
s38 /e30 doesn’t look so easy.
are you using the oem oil pan?
Is steering rack on OEM position?
thanks for the tips.

On my early swap s38 m3 I’m using stock e34 m5 oil pan. I lowered steering rack flush to subframe and pushed back to second hole on subframe.

Here is a link to my current s38 m3 project.
