87 dedicated drag car build

[Patrick4588]

Follow me on IG "BlownM3"

Essentially want to build one of the baddest straight line bmws on the planet.
Our donor car is a 87 bmw 325e.
LS 5.3 block, forged rotating assembly
T56
Ford 8.8 rear
Spool and gears

Etc etc

Mid to low 8s in a manual. Then probably swap over to an auto and push into the 7s.

Well then.

Did you bend the cage, or is it a kit? Fitment looks great.

Can't wait to see how you integrate the Ford 8.8 rear. I just got done doing a shortened 8.8 into an S10 behind an LS3/T56.

Completely custom, no kit. Im using an 8.8 from an explorer since tubes are even bigger than a 9". Cut ends off and welded ford big ends on.

There was a guy a number of years ago on e30tech who tubbed out his E30 and threw a narrowed C4 Corvette IRS under it, that was badass.

I can't wait to see where this build ends up. Followed on IG!

Does anyone sell a fiberglass front clip? Doors?

This website has a bunch of fiberglass bits, dunno about quality though.

Pesch has great quality. Probably one of the better companies out there.
