Re: 1988 bmw 320i m50 swap!.. new to forum help.
Maybe I've got it wrong. I've got a m20 flywheel 2.5 one and it needs lightening to fit but when I as at a BMW breakers in Derby I notice a 320i flywheel on the side and its not as thick as my 2.5 one. He had about 5 2.0l ones all the same . I will go and check in 5 mins
