    e30 89 e30 i to 85 e30 e swap

    Just got a clean 85 e30 e shell to put my 89 e30 i engine into from my busted body. Any issues I should be aware of? Driveshaft length.. blah blah. I'm also switching the transmissions cause the e one is shite. Comments, advice and whatever flaming this may bring are welcome.
    Before ya'll ask I know I have the components for a stroker but I have no time and my current mode of transport is going back to my sister this weekend.

    Also, you are a cock with tacky taste.

    That is all.

      direct drop in. as long as you're not going from auto to manual or vice versa (but why would you be that stupid?) you'll be fine. buy new engine mounts.
