So, about to start my e30 build. I'm becoming more and more determined to do an m62b44 swap, but I can't find a FULL build thread. Swapping the motor in isn't what I'm worried about, it's the small things like booster relocation's and things like that. I've found a few threads but... They're all in German. Can anyone point me in the right direction with this?

There are plenty of build threads in this forum section, just look a bit harder. Booster relocation is quite an straight forward job, things you should worry are like exhaust, radiator, electrical wiring, position of the engine (alternator hitting the chassis rail) etc etc...

You have my build thread which is not the best example but you do have lets say Jonsku and his build threads that are just awesome....

Just some few clicks are needed and you'll have all of your answers...

yep i can agree with that fella, i would probably stray away from the booster relocation though because of the trailing rods ect, maybe the best bet is to go for a standalone pedal/master cylinder setup like i have.
lots of build threads on here and iv tried to put as many pics in there as i can 8)
any questions then pop them up on here dude
