    M42 into 85 318i?

    Hey guys, couple of questions for you.

    I'm thinking about an engine swap. I don't have the $$ to get an M50, so I'm thinking along the lines of an M42 into my 85.

    What all do I need, other than the following:
    -Engine
    -Computer
    -radiator

    Thanks

    Hi, you will need wire harness, engine supports and mounts, throttle and air flow meter, ignition coil pack's, idle control valve, exhaust manifolds (headers) and downpipes, rad hose's, all the pipes for the engine coolant, basicly what ever goe's with this engine it's simple and not to expensive. By the way if you are looking for one with a complete setup with some goodies i have all of this just email me for more info. I have everything you need and in double. I have pictures and mpeg's of the engine. vwbilly@hotmail.com
