Buuuummmmp

I don't have a cherry picker. i don't have really any space to do it either. I'm confident I could do the motor swap as it is plug and play. Its the auto to manual trans swap I'm not sure about.

Seriously though, everyone's got to start somewhere. Just start taking shit apart and see how it goes. Try to be as hands on as you can and possibly get another forum member with more knowledge to oversee your work more than help you do it.

truef^^^^ the ONLY way to learn. get greasy and bust a couple knuckles. take advantage of all willing help and guidance available.

i mean, we once pulled an m20 with hands and seatbelts. it was bitch but can be done.

... its cause you're soooo ripped!

^ true story. with a hoist, would have had it done in a fraction of the time.

[dreamer420]

im pretty close to you... I havent swapped engines on an E30 yet, but I have done the auto to manual swaps. I'm also not an idiot and follow written instructions very closely.
Do you have garage space? or need to use someones?
