    yes it is tight on the oil pan, well spotted. I think I need position 3 as I also have AC but I could perhaps mount the compressor in line with the PS pump and have a belt driving both. But it might be fine in position 3 with the current belt arrangement. Think is going to be a winter job, might just collect all the bits over time. have got the E28 radiator, haven't got the new oil pan yet and looking out for the correct mounts. Is the oil pan a direct swap, I have an oil level sensor. Not even sure why they put a different oil pan on it, or was it that at the time the current pans would have failed and it was only the later pans that weren't out at the time would clear.

    Alpina thanks for the link do these fit the B32 which is what I think the 333i is?
    You can keep the AC compressor in the stock location if using position 3, it will clear the e28 radiator.

    Alpina and Hartge in in the early 80's had to make a front oil pan sumps for their m30 and s38 swaps.
    The m30 b32 and b34 can be swapped for a e32 or e34 m30 oil pan. Also will need e32 or e34 oil pick up.

    Try also



    i bought the S38 enginemounts ((the same as M30)) and you have 2 options to locate the engine in the enginebay

    the cost is 200€ i think.. and i think you can drill 1 extra hole to even push the engine more back

    Hell Scoobydo.

    I see the Alpina oil pan on your 333i will not allow you to sit in position 2. If it was me I would look for to buy Alpina steel mounts for position 2 and e32 or e34 oil pan. That will allow you to install a e28 radiator. Then you can run a front mount.

    I guy named Nick Hill,, had one of those,, same color and turbocharged.. some expensive Cosworth mods etc etc ,this Nick Hill was well known in the BMW community 15 years ago,,

    i still remember the figures he had ,, 450 ponies and 520 lbs/ft of torque still today very very impressive

    he was also running ZYTEK

    333 is the rarest of ALL oem BMW E30,, magnificent car ,,

    and i think ALPINA B6 3.5 is similair in performance,, but the price is another league,, unbeliveble expensive these B6

    this car is a rare beast.. treat it well

    Sizing up for a front mount intercooler rather than the side mount

    Was thinking of going megasquirt on this. Have someone in the states at the moment who could bring the bits back. Currently have low z injectors which are grouped into 2 banks running mechanical idle bypass that works via conducted heat with a 12 volt heater as well so no idle control needed. Also it is still is running a coil and ign amp towards the standard spark distribution and rotor at the front of the engine. Would love to have full data logging rather than the method of tune I have at the moment. Can post up my current ign tables and fuel tables as well to try and interpolate current settings including my cold enrichment etc. Anyone on here using megasquirt and able to assist. Have full wiring diagram for the zytek so no issues with ID. of wires. I have coolant based offsets, as well as air intake compensationwhere I can pull timing.

    attached is an old spark and fuel table red area has been corrected so don't worry about that and I. only go to load site 12 18psi but am running 3 bar map but boost is wound down.



    temp laws on Zytek

    Intake.

    This is a flipped airbox that draws air through the hood vent.
