E30: M62 Swap...Anyone actually do it?

[Rsully70sev]

I have read the German translated swap guide through and through about three times now. [Thank you for your excellent translations] It seems pretty complete and comprehensive with the given information, but I'm curious to see if there's any FIRST hand feedback and/or experience with the swap. I know it's a complicated project, so I'm working on collecting as much information as possible before I pull the trigger. If so, are there any write ups? I have searched the internet looking for guides and write ups, but found very few, and mostly incomplete.

Thank you for your input.

Idk, but I will be doing an m60 swap on an e30 next winter and plan to fully document it. It looks pretty straightforward. I guess that the m62 would have some obd2 concerns, but nothing crazy.

not to double post, but a guy on here documented and translated the e30.de one and added some extras.

We have an entire section dedicated to motor swaps, and yes there is a section for the M60.

I'll have to check it out, thank you.

Yeah I know, but theres only 5 threads, and I can garentee that section doesn't get much attention from the R3V users, so that's why I posted on the general forum.

Hey i was wondering if anyone uses the e34 braket for the break booster. Or did they make something else
