^lol fair enough.

Not exactly what i'd do but damn I can dig the execution!

I'm new to swapping these engines into E30s but do you pretty much eyeball/fab your engine/trans mounts? There is no "rough" blueprint to get them done?

Love seeing shit like this. Your title totally had me thinking I was going to see an alpine white e30 on bbs with an S50 swap. Thanks for keeping it fresh.

Thanks man!

Yes i more or less positioned the motor as centered as possible (front to back, left to right, and left to right in the trans tunnel / front to back in the shifter "zone" in the cabin) as possible then set about building the mounts under it.

They are dramatically further forward than stock e30 mounts.

Ill admit the car is far from perfect and a show car but its intentions are 2 fold.

1: make noise and smoke
2: get sideways

and it will make good on those intentions if i have anything to do with it!
