hi there,
new to this forum but browsing about and i must say its a good site to be on by the looks of it :)

my dad has a E30 softtop 320 with the straight 6 2.tr engine, we have came accross the E36 325i engine with the 6 cyclinder 2.5ltr engine chain driven.

we have got the complete engine, gearbox ECU and Wiring loom to do the conversion, just trying to find a few posts to see if any1 has done this? what common problems people came accross? things need to be done etc

anyone point me to a few good posts explainging a few things?
oh and what engine mounts and prop will need to be used

thanks in advance
