318i >> 344i - M62B44 Swap From Australia

Shit, this thread is making me want to part out my x5 and take the m62 and shove it in my car....

On the first test drive I was having an issue where the motor wouldnt rev and it felt like it was dropping spark anywhere over 3.5k rpm. Ended up being the crank sensor spacing on the front timing cover, put in a 0.5mm shim and it revs. It torches the 205s on the back if it at any revs in 2nd gear, might need to get something a bit bigger...

On to the final stages of tidying up the bay and then off for an exhaust
