If you could use any engine in the E30...

[SpecM]

I actually would not mind some form of a V8. Actually, it would be amazing to have an e30 truck with an LT4 (the 4-cam motor? I can't remember) and a T-56. I probably wouldn't do a whole lot to the motor, either.

the LT5, with the Lotus/Cosworth 32v heads

POS engine, I'd rather have a good 'ol ls6 that weighs a lot less

Does the S38 have the same cylinder spacing and intake bolt pattern as an M30?

ANd also what are the differences between this S38 vs the old S38 that came in the e28 and the M6?

Thats the only thing in this whole thread that made my pants tighten. All aluminum 3.8 w/ itbs yum.

I lie, a S70 will always make it move too.

Why not just get the sti CAR and blow the e30 off the road??

Coupe, lighter chassis, shorter wheel base, lower center of gravity...
