    Possible M60 or M62 swap

    I must have too much time on my hands. I'm currently racing a 91 318is with an S50 swap:



    and I'm almost finished building an 89 325is with an S52 swap and 5 lug wheels adapted to Corvette rims so I can run 315 x 18 tires:



    And then the other day, I found a 97 540i with a 6 speed at the local pick and pull, so naturally I had to have it( 300 bucks). I also stumbled across another 91 318is for cheap with the uncommon option of no sunroof.



    Together, it seems like the perfect combination to run as a Street Modified autocross car. So, here I am in this section of the forum, trying to figure out how hard it's going to be to put them together.

    It looks like it's going to require more fabrication than for the other two cars. Fortunately, I have a CNC controlled plasma cutter at my disposal.



    I don't suppose there is anyone here who has Autocad files to make the motor mounts and power brake mounting brackets that I need, is there?

      And that vert in the background with the hardtop?! You should be buying that top and reselling it to fund your swap.

        Good idea! I did.
