[DaveyB]

wanting to use the e36 318is 1.9 block withe the e30 318is head and inlet

as ive been told that the the e36 318is 1.9 block has a more restricted head/inlet

thoughts?

power gain, worth doing?

will it actually work?

thanks

Yes. But it doesnt tell you if you can marry the 2 engines together or if theres a great difference in power or not, etc
