Hi, I am embarking on an E34 540i 6 speed swap into an E30. Can anyone tell me what LSD (3.64,3.73,3.91) would be best suited?
Thanks
Mark

Mark,

I'm not sure of the 6th gear ratio on the 540i box, but I assume it's an overdrive gear similar to the E36 M3 Evo box. If this is the case, then the 3.64 is probably your best option.

Ian.
