My '90 325is LS3 Swap Build Thread

[slammin.e28]

Anyone know where you can buy predetermined lengths of brake hardline as well as fittings, or fittings already connected?

You want OE or custom?

OE lines aren't that expensive, and they are listed in mm on BMWFans and RealOEM.

I've gotten lines from Fisher and Napa for custom projects, pre-flared with fittings. Usually sell it in 1"-8" lengths, IIRC. Napa can probably just make custom lengths too.

Posted a few questions yesterday that got buried. Hoping someone has answers.

Also, anyone have a part number or a place to buy a 2 outlet 17/17mm MC. Im having trouble finding one.

I started a thread. A few pics of my build.

[ultimateracing335i]

For sure it would. I'm in Canada so I cand find t56 transmissions as easy as you. To import a used one doesn't make sense. Now I have warranty.

[CLM21]

Ahh ok I see. I think a rebuilt t56 would still be cheaper for me versus the magnum. Im pretty far from making that decision anyways, so not really worried about it yet.

No the the magnum comes in different configurations. I'll send the link

I actually have an RPM transmission in my tbss. And that blew a few months ago haha. I knew they were reputable for 4l70s and the like, but didnt know about the t56.

And I dont know much about the tr 6060 so cant really help you there. Heard you have to do a little bit of fab work to make the shifter fit correctly though.

[ultimateracing335i]

It is rated at 700 pounds of torque.

[ultimateracing335i]

It's a 60 60 in a t56 case

[ultimateracing335i]

F body is the right set up. I've lined mine up with sikky mounts. RPM transmission is really well known for there work. Look them up.

[CLM21]

Oh wait, isnt the t56 magnum actually the tr 6060?

[CLM21]

Nice. Pretty sure the fbody shifter will bolt onto any t56. I was just planning on having a shop rebuild an fbody t56, not sure who yet though. Gotta do some research.

[ultimateracing335i]

No the shop deals with a company called motors state. Its a t56 magnum with long ratios. You can also get a close ratio setup but I thought it might be to much for 24 inch tires.

[CLM21]

Haha. Where did you get a brand new t56 from? Did it come with a shifter?
