quick question...A friend has a E36 M3 engine for sale with all the running gear, was just wondering if the engine slots into the E30 with no major modifications??

It is not. Basicly it's an m50 engine :) since both m50 and s50 are found in the same car 3 series e36 there are no major difficulties :)
