ok thanks was wondering what the engine was i assume the e36 2l is a m50 then ?????

just because you think the gaskit is gone lol, doesent mean you should be changing your engine if you kno what i mean?. if you fit the bigger engine then you should be upgrading your suspension and brakes too, double lol
