        Transmission x member Is different. Motor mounts look identical. Cd is different but most hate It anyway. Not sure on the rest of the stuff. Are you doing efi or carb?

            If you're doing efi are you staying with the stock computer or standalone?

                If you're doing efi the e30v8 manual is useful for the harness splicing. No offense to Matt but a lot of the stuff In the guide is hacked. It has some good stuff in there and It's better than nothing since no one else has taken the time to make another guide.

                I recommend reinforcing the motor mounts because mine started bowing at the top where they bolt to the block. The cross member is easy to make if ur buddy is a decent fab. A lot of guys like the e36 radiator for the swap. I didn't use that radiator because I'd wanted my outlet/inlet to be like the mustang. Take a look at my thread and feel free to ask questions

                    Not sure since I don't know if the rest of the stuff will work for you. The Cd isn't as helpful as the e30 Cd would be. It's missing good info. I had both versions.

                          What kind of hydraulic conversion kit? If it's just a push/pull style slave with a wilwood pedal then fuck that shit. If it's a hydraulic TOB then... well I guess it's worth the money, even if you have to make everything work. Don't do a standalone clutch pedal, shit sucks (pedals are wayyyy to close together). Get the garagistic mount for a pedal box, it's what I wish I had done.
