1. If you want to get a few estimates and then negotiate from there like you did with the supercharger, I think that would work best.
2. I've got plenty of space, and an engine stand. Won't be a problem.
3. Two car garage at my place is all mine, I promise I'll clean it up before then. I do have the necessary tools, or at least most of them. It's generic stuff really.
4. That's quite alright with me. Should have the volvo build done by then. :D

Brad, you can count me in for help too. I'd be keen to help and learn. I plan on doing an S5x swap for sure at some point. I bet if you had cash in hand you could score that S52 in the COS for much less than he's asking. That's almost plug and play IIRC.

Roland once we help you get that plane, I'll help teach you to fly it!

[blefevre]

S50's are much easier because it is OBDI already. Honestly I will be willing to do either, it all depends on the engine I find.

I have every tool you can imagine. Let's do this.

Hey

We should go skiing again! oh wait, I am stuck back in MD - The land of the short mountains and ice gravel.. Anyway, it was nice to see more BMW friendly people, since I am surrounded by Nissan and mustang lovers..

Word.

PS. This is Sam's friend, Sam. All the way from Ceciltucky maryland.

See below= putting a fresh M20 into the world's most problematic E30 (and yes eventually it will have something better, but for now it'll have to do)

It was great meeting you man!

[iamsam]

[Finn]

Yeah, it was good meeting all of you all too. If you all need stuff from MD, let me know. I might be up for another roadtrip to CO...

That would be awesome!!

Get your E30 done and cruise out here this summer and we can do a track day or autocross or something!!

Hey guys, for you who go to junkyards often, please please Please keep an eye out for a Subaru SVX (bonus if 96+) with a complete (good, no holes in block) motor. I'm very close to pulling the trigger and doing that swap. If the motor is known to run/can be checked, I'd be super happy.

Thanks guys! Or just let me know where y'all go and I'll make a weekend expedition out of it.

Here's why I want that:




(that's stock motor, aftermarket mufflers)

Now imagine a similar motor (stock revs to 7800rpm) in the Manwagon.

Also, the swap is dirt cheap.

I'll keep an eye out for ya!!
