Mmmmm all new hardware for the M60.

Garage is getting very crowded and messy!!

[dirty30]

Stripped the engine of everything I wont be using and removed the upper and lower pans. Tomorrow I'll clean the upper pan and scrub the block down and then tackle the timing covers.

[dirty30]

Thanks guys. I'm going to put this thing on my engine stand tonight and tear it down. Cant wait to see this big alloy lump all cleaned up!!

[Butler]

[dirty30]

Finally! The ole' 740 put up a good fight but it's done.

[dirty30]

Almost out!



Just waiting on my brother to come over with sone massive extensions to get at these trans bolts. After that I need to unbolt the flex plate then get the crane in there... Soon!!!

[dirty30]

The cow is fat... Time for slaughter!!

Crash sensors and brackets are gone.







My RM250 I've been working on.







Engine body harness completely undone from the sheetmetal.

That e32 looked clean

Its very clean BUT these E32's are very expensive to fix and here is what it needs to pass inspection:

Airbag slip ring
Front struts
Front control arms
Front Thrust rods
Sunroof doesn't work
Heat is all or nothing
Tires

I just can't stomach putting any money into it and trying to make a profit selling it. Plus this M60 has an alusil block and runs awesome. I mulled over selling this car whole and buying just an engine but I have been able to drive this thing around and make sure its running 100%. These M60's after the alusil swap are bullet proof.

ugh, yes... please fully document or write down the complete parts list and mod list as we all would like to dream of making this swap possible. Awesome stuff

Its been done more than a few times but most of the M60 swaps are overseas. With 300mm.de's mounts this thing basically drops right in the e30's bay. I should have skipped the 24v swap and went with an M60 the first time around. Trial and error.
