update: 3/7/06
after going through this again in the morning i must have been a bit foggy in the head. I adjusted the time per shift .35 seconds instead of .50 that it had it at along with re-analyzing the data.
Originally i thought the m50 swap was the fastest with the E36 trans and 3.25. this is not true. The 3.25 and the e36 trans is going to better benefit higher hp/torque cars. maybe those with the s50 would like this better. or a chip/cam/maf/headers m50.
but the m50 2.5L is turning out to like the getrag 260, showing about a .10 sec margin over the e36 trans 0-60.
according to the computer. i know nothing can be perfect, but its interesting to see at the very least.
i also have done up some excel files where you can plug in the various #'s like tire size, gear ratio, rear end ratio, to figure out your exact speed in any gear.
