    1987 325es LS1/T56 swapped

    Hey everyone!

    This is my 1987 325es that I LS swapped in early 2019. The motor and trans are out of a 2004 gto, completely stock as of now. I’ve put probably 4K miles on the car since I got it running and I’m still working out the kinks when I find the time. It’s nowhere near a finished project but it’s still a blast to drive.
    I’m going to be making a lot of changes to the car this winter and am hoping to document it!

                  ^ the link gives an error saying the page is private. I do see a still photo from the video as a preview here though
