Engine Swap Info

[grlaneriejr]

I have a question.

I have an 85 318i, and I am looking to swap engines to a 318is engine.

What parts, other than the engine and computer, would I have to get to accomplish this swap.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I would imagine it needs an updated fuel pump also.

What about stuff like radiator, transmission, a/c, etc.? That is what I am really after.

I'm sorry but my M10 and M42/44 knowledge is about zilch. I don't turn wrenchs on them so I can't be of major help sorry.

I'm also interested in a pre facelift iS car but it wil cost a lot
the easiest way to start with that job is buy a wrecked iS
the M10 and M42 exhaust system is different also the wiring harness, gearbox,cooling system.....
The most important job is upgrading your brakesystem from single rotor/drum system to
ventilated rotor/rotor system
