big mess of parts













in the midst of swapping out parts to make it an obd1 m62. :D

already received my brake setup from a v8 e32 :D


now comes the fun part..... (my favorite)
full tear down of engine bay (everything) from brake lines to fuel lines to abs to brackets.

removal of core support to add a removal type for quick motor pulls.

seam welding strut towers and frames.... etc.....



so much work


so little time!

[Dominic49]

whats it take to get a 1 piece driveshaft to work in the e30? i would ting that it goes through the subframe that it wouldnt work out to well.

Good god that is a huge engine! How much do they weigh again?

Torque = good.

75lbs or so more than an m20... but its further back... plus the big ass 6 speed adds a fair amount to the mid part of the car...

no ac or PS should help a little bit

[rwh11385]

yeah, forgot about that whole Alusil part. good luck on install.

neither of those parts are too cheap I thought. How much does a 6spd run?

Hey dom, did you get that engine from a guy named mark?

[E30 Cabrio]

Quite the ambitious project. I wish I had the time, money, knowledge and ambition to do something like that.

I'm too lazy to spray my "is" front air dam and put it on. It's been sitting in my garage for almost a year now.

Getting old sucks...

[CorvallisBMW]

Oh no you didnt!

Looks like it will be one bad-ass project! Good luck!

[CorvallisBMW]

Are these some OEM mounts, like for a 24v swap? Or something custom?
