M30 swap question

Post by stefankj »

Hello guys, I have some questions for you who have swapped m30 into your cars.
What radiator did you use?
How did you sort out the driveshaft issues, since the output(triangle) on the gearbox i'm using(g265) is larger than on the M10 gearbox i used to have on my car.
And the shifter linkage, did you use the stock g265 linkage or a custom made one(to have the engine as far back as possible)?

Regards
