    How-To for 24v Swap?

    So, my m20 is still running (knock on wood) and I don't currently have the coin to do a proper swap. But down the road, it's definitely in the plans. I'm thinking either s50 or s52, maybe even an s54 is they're remotely affordable then.
    Anyway, I did some looking on here, e30tech, bf.c, pelican, and a few others for a parts list / DIY write-up. No luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction so i can try to get a grasp on everything that will be needed besides the obvious (motor / trans).
    Thanks in advance.

      Mmmmm, honestly can say I didn't look in the tech section.... Go go late night browsing. I'll look through there and see what I find, thanks a ton.

        Whatever you do, don't look in the "24v DOHC swap" section on here, and definetely don't look at the "comprehensive" 24v swap thread stickied at the top.

            www.e30dohc.com is a good way to start. It should get a lot of the basic questions answered.
