Around the 3.6 - 3.7 sort of area would be about right.

yup as brian says, ideally looking for a 3.64 out of a pre facelift (pre 1988) 325i sport

or a 3.73 off a 325i.

the 2.7 has plenty of torque for pulling a longer diff.

a 3.91 is well upto the job but would be a bit revvy on the m-way in my opinion
