    E30v8 Manual worth it?

    I realize the guys that made it are probably here...but I wanted some input from the community to see if it's really worth it to drop $70 for having all the information in the same place.

    I have no problem paying as long as it's good. The main reason I'm thinking of going this route is I know fuck all about Ford motors and it would be nice to have a quick breakdown of all the parts I need to get the car up and running. As with every cross platform swap I'm sure there are lots of ways of doing things and lots of little tricks and easily missed parts or procedures that make the whole thing a lot less painful (okay, maybe just a little less painful ).

    Most if not all of the info is available if you just go through a couple build threads. But its worth the money IMO to have it in one spot think of it as a convenience fee. Matt did a good job at getting the info together.

      Its worth it for the wiring info. The rest of the stuff can be found here (ive got a faq w/ mine and stuarts knowledge combined here somewhere)

        Cool, thanks for the feedback guys. I'll prob end up getting it then. Still in the early stages of planning but I'd like to read through it and work out a more accurate budget for the project.

            Awesome, thanks for the feedback guys. My manual is in the mail. It'll take me a week or so to read it all, but I'm sure I'll have questions.

              IMHO 70$ for "wiring info" is quite a lot of money considering all the wiring schematics are found for free in the 'net..

                Totally worth it to not have to spend the time searching pdf's.

                    You if need help, there's no hurt in asking members on here. The swap is definitely worth it if you're up to it and have the money.
