      Thats hardly proof that the S54 will work. The S54 is an entirely different motor with far more complex engine management, and well - every point i mentioned still stands as far as i'm concerned.

        S54 + E30 = no damn good...

        1. Size
        2. Weight
        3. Exhaust
        4. Mounting

        You NEED at least an e36 to use the s54.

        Side Note: The only part I disagree with on Alex's whole post is the ECU. Ben Liaw of RE put a S54 into a 3er touring with stock electronics. They did have EVERY part though from ignition to ECU to harness, etc.

          Fine, but thats because they basically wired the entire car, which is not the same.
