E30 Zone

Hi.

I have an aged 1972 E3 BMW 2500 - early M30 engine on twin solex carbs - It is now sporting a 3.0 M30 on triple Webers








This car has had a full nut and bolt restoration, which i finished in June.

Just bought an E30 325i Convert, 87/D, with an astounding 293,000 miles on the clock!

Anyway, you M30 convertion boys may be able to help me..... I know you bin the viscous fan off the front of the M30 engine, well I need one from a later engine to fit to my M30 - I have an early centrifugal fan, which doesn't work very well, so I want to put a viscous on. I do run an electric fan too.

Hope you fellas can help?

Cheers,

Martin.

Wow, what a lovely car!

With regards to the viscous fan, I'm pretty sure mine went in the bin when I did my conversion, but I'll have a look in the shed to check

Thanks for that - 2 years hard work!

I read your build thread, nice conversion!

Let me know if you find the fan.

Cheers,

Martin.

Thats a nice looking engine, whats it sound like with those Webber's on?

This guy's selling an M30 viscous, quite cheap and he will post.

It sound mighty fine on the triples!

Thanks for the lead on the fan

Mart.
