I have been considering doing a m50 swap on my 325i touring just wanted to know if i can use my gearbox,prop and diff also how hard will it be to keep the air con or is it going to be a pain to change all the pipework.

for engine mounts you need the e36 m52 ally arms and m535i rubber mounts, clio brake servo,e34 throttle cable, e36 328 air con rad, electric fan, if your using an e36 engine you will need an e34 sump and oil suction pipe other than that i think thats pretty much it

Well the good thing is you wont need to change radiators or fit an electric fan
