My s50

[Jonathan M3]

How much did the s50 run you, if you don't mind saying???

[lukasbmw]

Sorry to hijack but...

Green = 17lb
Pink = 21lb
blue = 24lb

Am I correct on this?

I'd assume that since 95 M3's came with 17lb injectors, I won't have to upgrade mine unless I am putting more then 220hp to the wheels with my modded m50 engine.

heh, i just put that identical motor into an e30 over the weekend. The s50 comes with green top 17lb injectors

you should like it :)

edit: I used a getrag 260 with many miles on it ;)

///Mtechnik88 - I am in Dublin right off of Sawmill - pm me

I am hoping to have the motor ready for install by the end of this month and installed by the beginning of June, I was hoping to have it done sooner, but I don't think I will be to complete it by than

Jonathan 90 M3 - I got the engine, tranny, all the shfit linkage, shift boot, shifter, front struts with hubs, calipers, rotors, and springs, flywheel, pressure plate, control arms, driveshaft, and rear springs for $3700 shipped to an airport near me. I think I got a pretty good deal, since alot of that stuff I am going to try and sell.

Mtriple - looks good I hope to be where you are in the next few months. How does the UUC flywheel look that is the one I was thinking about going with. Do you have anymore pictures of your engine it is beautiful.

Thanks Beau, The UUC flywheel is really nice. I've beem running it in my M3 for almost a year now. A little bit of chatter in neutral, but its minimal. Pedal feel is a bit softer than the stock M3 setup, which I like, and it is more than capable of higher HP with the E34 M5 clutch. My M3 is making 321rwhp and there isnt even a hint of slippage.

Hey Beau, what part of Columbus are you located? If it's not an issue I'd enjoy shadowing some of the process of the install, as I'm looking to do the same next year.

Allow me to second this, If you need a seperate set of hands.

Btw Beau, I talked to the guy possibly buying your M20 last weekend at Mid Oh.

[Beau B]

Charlie - Thanks for the offer, I will definately let you know when I am ready for the swap. Thanks for the offer, oh who did you talk to about my M20? There were 2 guys that asked me about it.

Beau

[grk325]

[pogiboy9]

[Beau B]

Pogiboy9 - I have a few guys that are interested in it locally but no one has commited yet

Beau

[pogiboy9]

Stu - I know that your dad actually recommended the 260 tranny . . .

Why is the 260 preferred?
