    Autoshop hours

    Hey, i'm starting my M30 conversion tomorrow. I want the mechanic to do the following:

    1.) Remove tranny/radiator/driveshaft out of 535i in their yard.
    2.) Take my engine/tranny out of my car
    3.) Put 535i tranny on My E32 engine
    4.) Set E32 engine/tranny in car. Don't hook anything up, just set in there.
    5.) Do some exhaust work

    DONE

    I'm trading my M20 engine/tranny for some stuff i need from him for the conversion.

    Do any of you know how many hours it will take to do these jobs?

    He quoted me at about 25 hours for the whole job (at $60/hr is about $1500)

    Is this reasonable? or will it be more or less than this?

    I'd ask the guys that have done a M30 swap what kinda hours it took. The 2 engine removals shouldn't be bad. I'd say the time will be spent hammering in the fire wall and test fitting to get your mounts lined up. just my
