    VAC motorsports sells them but they are like ~$1100.. I got them for free off of a euro e24 (m90) parts car. I'm hoping they'll fit

    Oh and my motor swap was halted halfway through by the flu. Awesome! The m20 is out and the m30 is ready to go in but I need to spend a few hours cleaning up the engine bay and I just can't do it right now.

      If the stahl headers don't work out for you, please let me know if they will be for sale.

          Still researching, it won't happen till spring or so. Most likely a 284.

                    Stahl's don't fit. At least at the first test-fitting they didn't. But my engine angle was a little off because of the way I had the leveler attached, so I'm going to be going back at it with a big ass hammer so maybe they will but I'm pretty sure they won't. Just an FYI

                            Hello all. Longtime fan, 1st post.

                            1. Get the 2 donors stripped and hauled away. 92 735i, 94 325i.

                            1a. search forums for proper clutch/PP/Fly for N/A M50B25 plus 85 g260.

                            2. M30B35 to the machine shop, M50B25 into the e30.

                            3. Thunderbolt NJ, drive the crank off the M50.

                            4. Post 2011 plans :)

                                Just to get the car as reliable as possible for many more years to come!
