Yes, quite big.

Dash needs a bit of work to clear it. Change 1 thing, change 10 others.

Heath, heel & toe in the e36 is easy enough and I based the layout on that. The e46 is a pain to do it in though, brake pedal's to high.

Thought you hated wiring :D

At this point you may as well make it Mil-Spec ... Could be time for me to dig out the old text books, wouldn't be "that" hard to integrate...

This is one crazy conversion. Logic says replace the whole wiring loom but often the engine is just spliced in. Good to see someone taking on the challenge.

I have been looking at doing a 5 stud conversion dont think i would take this route. You have some skill with the welder it looks very professional.

Are you taking a break for christmas? when will we hear her running?

Who knows when I'll see her run, maybe in the next few months (vague enough?) but will probably be up to a year before I'm close to finishing stage 1.

Bathroom renos mean a stop in progress. Hopefully finished with it this week.
