Has anyone put an ETA intake mani on an I head?

You can use it on a stock eta.. Not much reason too, and im not sure how the ignition timing would cope with the short duration eta cam. Someone on here did it though. I forget his name.

super eta looks exactly like the reg. eta mainifold- from the outside. nothing even closr to the i mani.

Different Part number though.

Listen to this one...........I pulled the engine out of this 88 325i, I knew the engine had been replaced, but I had no idea it was anything different. Come to find out someone had installed an eta head/block, built up with all "i" intake and injection and dme. The car seemed to idle ok, but has anyone here done this?

pop the valve cover to see if the head is still stock. It will have a 7 bearing cam instead of a four bearing cam.

Essentially right now my engine's block and head are just an eta. I have taken all of the external parts from the later 325i m20b25 (intake, exhaust, full engine harness with #173 ecu, etc). I also added the 19# design III injectors with the m30 AFM and a cheap ebay chip. There is a nice performance gain in the top end and the torque has improved some.
I had aquired another eta cylinder head that I was in the middle of porting out to the "i" sized intake/exhaust ports, plus drilling the oil holes for a 7 bearing cam.
I managed to come across a deal on a 323i #731 casting cylinder head that I couldn't pass up, so I am going to use it now. I have also ported this head out and made the flow pattern similar to the "i" intake and enlarged the exhaust side quite a bit plus a mirror polish on the exhaust side. I keep getting set backs, but it looks like in 3 weeks I should have this head on the car.
