Just did a 5-speed swap on my iS and have an extra diff laying around from switching down to a 3.73 LSD

1989 325is
4.10 LSD (Tag indeed contains and "S")
Had 197k miles when pulled
Filled with Redline 75w90 (LSD fluid)
Medium Case

Gear lash/hum/whine was minimal before pulling (had to roll windows up and turn radio all the way down and really concentrate to notice it)
Worked perfectly before pulling

Luke box ordered! Let get the tunes going!

So is here a huge difference between an m50 swap or an s50 swap? Can you make an m50 have similar power with small mods?

You'll love it. I went to his shop when he was just outside Seattle and installed it with him, really awesome setup. AudioControl Three.2 has been an incredible head unit off of his recommendation too. Check it out, handmade in WA.

Oh yeah

s50 head is a great upgrade for m50s
s50 cams give good gains in m50s
s50 block can be used to give more lower end torque to m50s

Essentially, if you upgrade your m50 with s50 block, head, and cams you should be.... Woah...


Wait.....

.....

For what you'll pay in m50 swap + mods, you can pay for s50 swap OBDI and have a larger power range for the same mods. I've never seen the point in m50 swaps unless it's for a very very very casual DD

That's like the worst deal ever...

Auto tranny m50 for 1300? I'd rather push my e30 down the street.

If you parted the e36 out, I'm sure you'd get enough money out of it and you could get the car for cheaper. And you can use the tranny from your car can't you?
