I've been offered a 535 that has the m30 engine but it's an auto. I'm wondering if it will go into an e30 an if the box of an m20 engine fit it. I've put m20 engines into e30's before but not 1 off these. Any info would be appreciated. O i've also got loads of E30 parts if any one needs anything give me a shout. Cheers

There's a guide at the top of this section... :thumb:

I'm not aware of anyone having made an m20 gearbox fit, but have heard of m10 boxes being used.
