    Wow good job. I should have a movie in a few days whenever the post office finds my mounts.

      The mounts I made work for the E24/E28 block... Since my motor is out of an 88 635, it has the E32/E34 head...

      Basically I will be making another set for the E32/E34 block where there is no modification necessary to the firewall.

        So, how likely is it that you will make more mounts for the E24/28 engines?
        I would like some. M30 from an '86 535i.

          We will be making more of the mounts that I have now. With the Earlier head, you WILL need to modify your firewall, period. There is not enough room in the engine bay for the early head and a radiator. :(

              Timeframe, month and a half to two months.
              Price: less than I paid for the fabrication of mine, haha.

              If you need some before then, I can have another set hand built, but they are going to be around $400 if I have to have them hand cut and hand built.

                  The E32/E34 mounts will probably be another month past that...

                    Just wondering how you will make the mounts for this engine? Are you planning on doing another swap with the e32/e34 motor?

                      My motor has Bosses for both mounts, so I will probably build them on my car...

                                I pick up the car from the exhaust shop at 3, and dropping it off at the alignment shop... ;)
