E30-ls1

[garretvs]

So the front end damage wasn't too bad then?

Putting in a new radiator support, '88 valence, new RH fender. Got a nice spot-weld cutter (looks like a little 2-flute end mill with a centering point) which makes removal of the bent radiator support easy.

No 24v parts. We sold the completeM20, gearbox and ECM after we pulled it out. (Good riddance :giggle:)

I would happily pay for a write-up CD; I am seriously planning on pulling my m30 to put in an LS1.

OMG!!! this is what i wanted to do. but maybe not an ls1... maybe a carbed 350. But nice work i would also like to see a video! Props

Look on bimmerforums or e30picnic thread. I saw this car last year.

Hey, buy the CD!

Money sent today :) Now, if only you could fab up some mounts for me to put all this together...

if you want to buy motor mounts google new age hotrods they have a LS1 to E36 stuff... and sell motor mount arms for it, there is no reason why they wont work in a E30

Apart from the simple fact that the E30 and E36 engine bays are not the same.
