M60 Swap thread

[Jean]

Mounts arrived. Next up e38/e39 manifolds / tranny.

[Jean]

They are due on the 16th according to UPS. Got a set from a forum member on e30tech to start with. Hopefully they will sit the engine w/o having to lower the subframe or any of that ....

[sacbmwdriver]

Engine mounts and possibly correct 5speed harness on the way soon :)

what engine mounts did you decide to go with?

[bimma360]

Lol, you know there is easily over $1000 in maint. items to get for it right ? :) Once it fires up and moves then i'll be happy.

Heh... yes yes, but you are still ahead of the game in my book.

You're going to drop $1000 into that motor in just chain rails and stuff? Seems like a lot!

[Jean]

Lol, you know there is easily over $1000 in maint. items to get for it right ? :) Once it fires up and moves then i'll be happy.

[bimma360]

Wow $100... I bet you are happy you went the m60 route!! Good luck man.

[Jonsku]

That's a very good deal, around here you can get 2000-3000$ easily from the parts (excluding the engine and brakes).. :)

That's allot of chain.:woowoo:

Yea, it's almost like a chainsaw :D

[e30m3s54turbo]

That is very good deal.

[c4ls7]

thats a deal for $100

[markseven]

This will be good.

You got the whole car for $100?

[LowR3V'in]

That's allot of chain.:woowoo:
