cheers to eveyone who gave me advice earlier on fitting the m44 engine.Just wondered what else needs changing apart form the sump set up to fit in an e30?been told to change the inlet manifold,whats the differnce between the m44 one and the m42 version.Also is there a a way i can run the m44 exhaust manifold as i get hold of a e30 m42 exhaust manifold.Could iuse a e36 m42 exhaust manifold?sorry if i come across stupid but i aint a mechanic,all help and advice welcome.

sorry my spelling sucks,meant to say i cant get hold of an e30 m42 exhaust manifold,hence why i wondered if i could get away with the m44 manifold or the e36 m42 manifold as i can get one of these,cheers.
