Is anybody doing an M60 swap?

I'm just getting ready to start one. I'll be programming all the special brackets on a CNC plasma cutter. If anyone wants to work cooperatively, it will be easy for me to cut extra sets. Andy in Illinois has already provided me with motor mount drawings. I'll also be doing the special brackets for relocating the master cylinder as well as brackets to move the steering rack.

save everything! I'm sure ill be interested in a few years. I have an m62 motor from a 4.4 X5 sitting around, but need everything else for it, including another e30. If you wanna save CAD files and pictures and stuff, Ill gladly accept them with great appreciation.

Good Luck! Keep us updated. I think its an awesome motor, I wish there was more info on the swap.

Look at e30zone.net there are a few people on there doing m60 swaps. In fact, anyone doing engine swaps should check out the site. There is a wealth of info on there.

I would love too, I have to swap something in my project car so a 4liter m60 would be nice :)
