M30b35 engine loom and manual gear box

[nutter 1]

I have a M50b25 and i was thinking of putting a M30 in my e34 1991 Manual

I dont really want wasted a good engine

Does any one have a M30B35 with loom and computer(Manual Computer if theres a differene)for a good Price

And will My gearbox fit on a M30?

What gear box? and dif ratio would be best to use?

thanks Gareth just looking at my options lol ive done a RB20e to a RB30e engine swap to a Cefiro would this be simlar type of hassle,i mean will it just drop in or will i need to chenge to engine bay around?

thanks gareth

have all the bits .

call if interested

pretty much drops in if you get all the bits from the donar e34 /e32 etc

might even do a part trade with your old engine and gearbox etc .

can use diff ratios from 3.25 to 3.91 medium or large case , depends on what you want to do with it.

i agree the m50 is a nice engine , (in a smaller e36 or e30) but just doesn't have the torque to pull a e34 around at speed .

my freind has a manual e34 525i m50 , its nice enough to drive , but the 535i manual pulls heaps stronger.

i have pushed them around tracks and done drags with them , they go ok ,

but now its a e28 M5 (track day car)for me or maybe a e36 325i or 328i if you want a well sorted track car

No, your gearbox won't fit, you'll need the whole lot to make it work.
