Hi everyone
I've got my sport forsale on eBay but it seems like all I'm getting is calls/txts from messers.
so its heading towards me keeping her :)
my friend has offered me a m50 2.5 engine which he had in his e36 touring.
also a m3 6 speed box which is on the engine
he sold the 2.5 inlet manifold and a 6 branch off of it
but he's said ill give me m3 throttle bodies and m3 6 branch which is slightly bent and m3 3.0 cams.
for £400
so basicly I'm getting

m50 2.5 engine
m3 6 speed gearbox
m3 throttle bodies
m3 3.0 cams
m3 6 branch
and wiring loom and ecu with non ews

will these all work together?
i know ill need e34 sump
m5 e34 engine mounts

but what else would i need?
would i need any other bits from his car?

many thanks

No they wont, the only thing that will is the gearbox

Why M50 a sport? It will halve the value of the car

Agreed, wait for the right buyer and punt it on
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.
