Bmw m44 swap

My e36 is in need of a new engine, it’s already an m43b16, I’m thinking on putting in an m44b19, what do I need to be aware of when doing an engine swap like this and what all do I need. Any advice is well needed, thanks

If I were you I would just put in an M50. The M44 is a good motor but the M50 is just better overall

I understand that a 6 cylinder would be the smart choice, but I’ve never done an engine swap before and want to keep it simple and also for insurance reasons

Well in that case keep the m42 because even though it’s not as powerful, it has more potential for upgrades

I would love a 6 cylinder but the m44 will do as it’ll hopefully be my first road legal car
