    I know it took some time, but I have finally released Rev C of the E30 M30 Writeup. It includes additions to the following sections:


    Includes 73 Pages, 5 Tables, and 69 Figures/Pictures.
    Updated Troubleshooting Section adding Motronic 1.3 codes & popular fixes
    M20/M30 Radiator differences
    Engine Brackets are available for purchase from other than E30.de for the shopper looking a little cheaper.


    Thanks so much for looking and again, feel free to contact me for questions and comments. I'll be more than happy to help.

    As promised, I've emailed the Rev C to everybody who's purchased a previous revision.

    Price is still $12 and is available for purchase.
    Thanks!

                        Money well spent so I don't have to spend a bunch of time researching the swap again.

                        Thanks.
