-spent probably $100 for various things at harbor freight
-lifting straps which were really helpful because of their ability to fit under the bellhousing and not crush the firewall like a chain would
-load leveler I didn't end up even using
-aluminum racing jack 1.5ton on sale
-crappy tap and die set that I used to chase just one of the 4 E36 engine arms that were non-existent because the E34 uses other mounting locations

-u-haul trailer to pick up engine $45
3 months of hard work and valubale knowledge I learned priceless
total about $2000, but I would do it all over again and am seriously considering it.Last edited by phillye30fanboy; 11-03-2013, 10:17 AM.

I learned a long time ago not to keep track of how much money I dump into my cars. It would just scare me! :eeek:
Even with that I have a rough idea of how much I have in my e30 so far. Including the cost of the car sans engine & tranny, cost of the M52 engine & ZF tranny, and other parts I'm probably in the neighborhood of $8K.
