Shouldnt do, i put my 320 right into the 325 set up

I think we changed the prop but that was it

Depends on what age the relative cars are; if they're both later 1988-on Motronic 1.3 cars, then the engines can be directly swapped over, otherwise, you'll probably need to swap the engine bay wiring looms.

Also, if fitting an M20B25, you should ideally also fit the disc rear brakes and beefier front struts that the 325i had.
