Opinion on best or coolest motor swap

[Todd Black 88]

S62

On second thought , a vr6 would actually be a cool swap.

Because slower than s52, and really hard to make it work?

N52: 260 hp and less than 350 lbs..... ugghhh

+1 on this!

S65

Well .... if we are going total pie-in-the-sky here.

M70 with IDF downdraft carbs and 10" chrome stacks through the hood.

Slightly less wild option .... same idea with an M30.

Epic no budget bimmers deserve the v10. It's like the M156/159 AMG equivalent, you won't ever be able to keep a straight face when it blasts your car sideways.

S70 if it wouldn't ruin the fun of driving anything else.

I voted 4g63 because I like those LOL anybody got a link to a build?

[lambo]

rotary all day

edit: not an e30 but definitely one of my favorite cars of all time

Interesting. The m30 never fails in polls it seems.

Interesting. The m30 never fails in polls it seems.

Because of it being the only purist engine for an e30.

M54/n52 have superior tq curves while being way lighter. The appeal of the m30 is mostly period correctness and cost.

[ELVA164]

Cosworth DFV and transaxle swap.

[mikebloco]

That was hands down the coolest gs300 I have ever seen. Thank you Lambo

M30 master race :hitler:




if money wasn't an issue and I had it my way though, I would build a high rpm short stroke 4.8 ls1 or an S54 with big cams and a vanos delete.
