M50/52 conversion?

[dannyboy759]

Would like to do this conversion instead of the M30 3.5 I had planned but i have no info on this.
Is there a website of parts and info?
Any help would be great.

Cheers Dan

So ive got to read through 28 pages of stuff!!
No one got any specs?

There's no one way of doing the conversion! Plenty of options in the thread to think about.

here's what i used if this helps you
m52 2.8 engine e.c.u + e.w.s
728 e38 + 328 exhaust manifolds e38 front e36 rear modified to suit
e28 535 engine mountings
e36 328 deep radiator on modified e36 mounting with electric fan from e34
e36 m3 evo flywheel and clutch with timing pin hole added as m3 engine pins on crankshaft damper at front
e36 2.8 gearbox
e36 2.8 propshaft with e30 centre bearing
e36 steering rack with modified coupling fabricated myself to e30 zone instructions
e30 gearbox crossmember with e34 rubber mountings
e28 diff 3.08 from 525 eta gives just over 60 in 2nd gear at redline
probably missed something but hope this gives you a good idea

What about the wiring from the engine to the bulkhead, what involved in that?
