Having amassed the parts for a M44B19 engine swap - then sat on them for well over a year, I've now decided to go a different route, so the full conversion is up for sale.

Sale Includes:
    - M44B19 on 119,00k as removed from a healthy e36 318is auto (video of engine running https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_8hY43 ... sp=sharing)
      - Engine comes complete with loom/ECU/EWS box+chip, Flywheel/clutch and all ancillaries except alternator.
        - M42 exhaust manifold + M44 Downpipe with lambda boss
          - M40 Sump/Oil pickup and Dipstick
            - M40 engine arms
              - M44 Airbox

              If it helps people , I had an M44 B19 in my 318ti and sold the car with 186k on the clock.
              One of the best engines I have had the pleasure to run !!! :clap: :clap:

              They are a cracking little engines, I had another in an e36 on 200k and it zinged along like it was on a 1/4 the mileage. :D

              Just wondering, is this better than an M42B18? Would it fit?

              FRee bump, thanks :)

              Compared to an M42 its got more torque low down which is noticeable, for me the management control side of things makes the difference so it can be better tailored with a remap.

              Brucie bonus - built in imobiliser too.

              If I was doing a conversion on my m10b18 then I would go for this all day long above a 325/320.

              Morning. Is the M42 manifold a proper E30 type, or E36 type?
