Just do it =) m50 is a really good choice. But I would get a complete e36 as spare and you still need some other stuff like oil pan etc
I got info from my friend that already done it. He said, There’s no need major change. Just take the engine mount from E34. And shorten the drive shaft if i want to using the original diff… thought?
I don’t have any tips but what wheels are those, they’re clean looking.
Its a Hartge Type A. Thanks btw 😁
In my opinion the M50 isn’t really worth it when for the same amount of work you could have a M52. Definitely go M52!
M52? What about nikasil issue that M52 have?
if you can find good M50. here like 90% of our M50 engines are really tired. m52 is good, find rusted or crashed cheap 3 series or 5series bmw. mutch easer to swap if have donor car ;). about 5series car, its oilpan might not fit right, not sure if it is e30, but if swaping in e36 oil pan doesnt fi in well.
Okay. So, if i go with M52 motor, then. Which production years i have to take?
