I've read that this conversion is difficult as the engine sits really close to the brake booster, howd you conquer that? nice looking car. stillettos really suit clean e30s Edited August 15, 2006 by Munts316i Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've read that this conversion is difficult as the engine sits really close to the brake booster, howd you conquer that? nice looking car. stillettos really suit clean e30s same problem with the m50 swap - all you do is modify an e21 booster. People have even used fiat boostyers and the like - smaller so less of a problem. Edited August 15, 2006 by bravomikewhiskey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All Engine Mounts and DriveShaft were made through Brake & Clutch Just got Car back from panel & paint shop a month ago got all the holes welded up and new plates welded in along the chassi rails and along all the firewall were the rubber plates used to be which has given it a good clean look now.
