Between me and Toby we think you can use an E30 M3 prop with out chopping it with the e30.de mounts. Just depends on what engine position you settle for ?
At the time of doing my conversion i didn't know that the M3 prop would fit so i had the front section of the E34 M30 prop welded to the rear section of the E30 325 prop at http://www.reco-prop.com/ for about 140 quid.
Have a quick look on here for some picys

Hi, Thanks for the info, I am going to mount the engine as far back as I can without moding the firewall and make my own mounts up.

i did my own.
no problem if you can weld.
i inserted something inside to centralise it then welded it up.
try to keep the joint at one of the ends to minimise imbalance.
it's the second i've done
