what flywheel are best suited to the m30b35

[mikeyce30]

hello chaps

ive read all the search results and the wiki pages and couldnt find much on this

what flywheel are best used in the m30 b35 i think ive got the dual mass standard from the m30 engine

i have heard that the e28 is the better one as its single mass?

any suggestions

[Bristol_Jer]

I think I'm right in saying all m30'd e28s have a single mass flywheel, and the m535 and m5 flywheels are the lightest of the bunch. You will also have to budget for a clutch as the single and dual mass clutches are different, and they're not cheap!

[e30topless]

I have a single mass E28 M535i flywheel should you need one

[leeparkes]

Any early manual M30 fly will fit, mine is from an E28 525i with an E28 535i clutch.

cheers for the info

just been reading your build thread leeparkes thats a great build. did the flywheel make much difference?

i take it you use the flywheel bolts from a e28 then?

[leeparkes]

Cheers!

Yes use E28 bolts as there shorter, ive no idea if the flywheel made any difference, i went to single mass fly when the Alpina lump went in.

You could get a custom E34 flywheel from TTS.

Takes the cheaper E34 clutch kit.

It should take all of 7 days if everything is there at a push.

Come on Rav, chop chop.

[Rav335uk]

Ahhhhh.....
But that's a straight swap, with all the "Polishing" up

[leeparkes]

Are you saying my first M30 swap was a 'lob in' conversion?


How dare you!

[Rav335uk]

Yep, like mine in the cab

[leeparkes]

We all know your cab conversion was a 'lob in' swap Rav.

We need updates.

[Rav335uk]

Soon.
