As you'll see I've recently been posting about the details of the S50B32 conversion. This is because if I don't do it soon I'll never bother, I've been increasingly jaded after people keep abusing my car. I don't mind if it's me abusing it!
Anyway:
Could you tell me the exact engine mounts and gearbox mounts I require? My solid engine and gearbox mounts (the bit between rubber and engine/gearbox) are also trashed after the crash the donor car went through. Which cars can I get these from?
Many thanks for your help guys.
Jai

The alloy engine mounts from the M Roadster, E36 M3 and M3 Evo are all the same, so you can use any of those. I dont think the E36 325i/328i mounts can be used with the S50 engine.
The rubber mounts from the E28 M5/M535i are what Ive used and Ian332i as well I believe.
The E30 gearbox crossmember will be fine for the 5spd box. I think I used the E36 M3 rubber mounts as they seemed a bit tougher than the E30 rubber mounts.
