e30plz 1 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 You need the E34 sump. Plus make up a driveshaft, engine mounts (or buy expensive aftermarket ones), And an exhaust. Have a search, There's lots of info about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 You need the E34 sump and oil pick up. I have all the bits and profiled cut brackets for the engine mounts. Plus all the info for this type of conversion... I was doing one last year and cancelled the project because of other comitments Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) e34 535i and e32 735i use the same sump. and yes that will fit your e30. e23 735i , e28 535i and e24 635csi use a larger sump and will hit the cross member Edited June 25, 2009 by Brent HARTGE535i Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
