So, last fall, I snapped the timing belt on my e30. I had pretty much decided that I would at some point do some kind of motor swap on my car, likely either M52 or a Ford V8.
It was never really much of a priority but I would occasionally search CL, FB and other forums for motors or donor cars. A few months back I found a V8 out of an explorer but the deal fell through... but a couple weeks later a 96 328i popped up for $1k so I decided to jump on it.
Two weeks ago I started the process of ripping the m20 out of my car so I guess it's time to officially start my build thread :p
The thread will document my progress along the way and hopefully it will be a place I can get some questions answered along the way and and a place where some future swappers can get their questions answered as well!
