Conversion back to M20 power in the ChumpCar is well underway. Put the replacement engine back together (with a sweet new paint job) and dropped in last weekend. This weekend will be finishing up the engine wiring, hose routing, hooking up fuel lines, and making the new exhaust. If it wasn't for the cold, I'd fire this thing up this weekend.



Should also try to finish up the rear suspension, going all poly back there.




Still have the good M50 bottom end minus pistons, non-vanos intake,402 ECU, E34 oil pan with VAC baffle and a few other M50 swap goodies. hit me up with reasonable offers if anyone wants this stuff.

It was a blast, except for that fact that they canceled the afternoon session because everyone thought the course was too rough, wimps

it's cold over here

[dannyyisntt]

Nice man! That was probably pretty exciting

Put the E28 through it's first rallycross two weeks ago. Got first in class, but desperately need some new winter tires.

[dannyyisntt]

What's new people?

[klodkrawler05]

Seems like theres always a few for sale on Kalamazoo craigslist lol!

I'm over near Lowell/Clarksville if you ever come more westbound, hopefully I'll make some of the local cars and coffee/sonic meets this year.

My 325ix is grey as well. I'm surprised you haven't seen more e30s down your way. Could have sworn there was a good amount of e30 people around kzoo

[eCarson30]

I live over in Essexville. Also have a 325ix and a few others. I'd be down for a meet sometime

I'm down in the Kalamazoo area, grey 325iX, only seen two other e30's in the area.

I've got an S50 with a fresh cylinder head, and lots of new parts, and the associated parts to put into an E34, including red label 314, accessories, flywheel and clutch etc etc If anyone in interested.

Was going to stick it in my 525 but haven't ever gotten around to it, and I'm picking up another 540i6 so there kinda isn't a point in me swapping it.

Any of you guys need some M50 stuff? Or E36 stuff? I figured I'd put this up here to get some local interest with local pick-up before trying to deal with shipping big heavy things.

Have a good, clean block M50B25 block out of an E36 with good crank and ~fresh bearings (10 hours). No head, no oil pump and no pistons/rods. Would make an excellent starting point for a real engine build.

VAC Stage 1.5 non-vanos head, with a bunch of bent valves. Upgraded to 6 mm valve stems, S50 valve springs. Should be rebuild able with new guides/valves.

ARP headstud kit, Cometic MLS gasket - both used but still usable.

Also have a complete M50 that is almost ready to run, just needs new head bolts to go with the new head gasket - This one is out of an E34 AT car, so has the right pan, pump, pickup etc needed for an E30 swap.

Also have other bits (except for head/pistons) to complete the engine pictured for a swap, including an extra E34 pan with VAC baffle installed, modified intake manifold for clearance to brake booster, etc.


And then there is all the E36 suspension / drivetrain stuff. Full rear suspension, most of the front suspension, diff, trans, etc.


All monies from sales go to rebuilding the ChumpCar and bringing glory to the R3V community! Race season is officially less than 90 days away, looking to free up space and collect monies I need to put a new engine together.
