I offered my m40 box up to the m50 today. It's currently got the standard dual mass flywheel and a paddle clutch fitted.

Everything seems to fit fine. Bell housing offers up fine, input shaft spline on the box is the same as n the friction plate and e34 starter motor also bolts up fine.

Am I going to have problems with the clutch release bearing and slave cylinder not releasing the clutch properly.?

Has anyone else used this combination? I don't really wanna go spending lots of money on an m20 flywheel and new clutch.
