Measuring my wrecked E34 535i...
On top of the mounts, the studs are 23 7/8 center to center at the interface plane, with the mounts in the M30 position. The upper and lower studs on the mounts appear to be concentric, even though the mount studs are off center from the mount pads.
On the crossmember, there are no less than FIVE pairs of mount locations, at three different lateral separations and two different longitudinal planes.
The M30 locations are 25 1/8 center to center at the interface plane.
The other locations are 23 9/16 and 22 7/16.
On each pad, the holes are 13/16 and 1 1/8 apart.
The M30 mounts are right at 2 1/2" tall.
On my dad's iX automatic, the engine mount stud centers appear to be 16 1/2" forward of the bellhousing face.
I'll put my dad's inclinometer to work tomorrow to figure out what the angle of the engine mount pads is.
Also got my spare iX crossmember to the QC/CMM guy for reverse engineering, but he's in the middle of an ISO audit and probably won't be able to get to it until the end of the month.
