Hi Guys,

I am looking into an engine swap and want to swap to the M50B25.

I am wanting to know what would be required for this swap ?

Every bit of information would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Lee

All covered in the engine swaps forum, under M50/52.
Lots of ways of doing it - the only parts you HAVE to use are E36 M50/52 alloy engine mounting arms.

Also type "engine swaps" into the Wiki and clixk "Swap Me!" in the M5x section.
