Thanks, it's a M50! I bought the car with a broken timing belt, so I pulled that motor and bought a wrecked '94 325i. Swapped the engine, trans and steering rack over to the E30.

I'm not telling you he couldn't spend an hour or two cleaning shit up. He obviously didn't have the time or give a big enough shit about his m50 swap to clean anything.
Like I said not everyone has the leisure time to do such things. Maybe he had a weekend to do it and time was tight who knows. I don't see the reasoning in dogging on his swap because the engine bay is dirty.

Thanks for all the complements guys!!
BeemerBuyer, I live in Corvallis but work in Salem. I have a Mercedes-Benz and BMW repair shop with my father.
Sir Young, the swap took me about a month of Saturdays and Sundays. That includes the swap itself, the steering rack, lsd swap, and suspension.
Thanks again, I'm enjoying the crap out of this car!!E30 325i 24v, E36 M3/4/5, MK2 GLI 16v, NA8 Miata

your saying he might not have given a shit, there in lies the issue. Its being done the incorrect way. The fast way...
But I just came in and voiced my opinion and I was pretty cool about it. So take your punk ass somewhere else...

Only reason Im in here, is because while I was reading this last night. I was taking a break from cleaning EVERY piece of hardware that Ive removed from my 60k mile s52 long block.
edit: OP your car is dope and Id drive it and Im sure you'll get around to cleaning the bay, make sure to post pics when you do. Your on the way to having a really sweet 4 door!
