I am thinking of buying this motor for the engine and putting it into one of my E21's and wanted to get some thoughts. The idea in principal sounds awesome, however the weight vs power ratio doesnt sound so promising. It would be a very heavy engine in a small car, so cornering would be a huge issue. I guess the sensible boys reduce the weight and go for a 318is 16v engine ?

Your thoughts guys.

Thats a lot o moeny for the engie I sold a genuine h5 engine on ebay last month and it made £450

As for an m30 like that you going from about a 140bhp/tonne to to about 195 bhp.tonne, carbon bonnet and battery int he boot and you have offset the wieght

Jaosn

I wuld take the wheels, the engine and the LSD and sell the rest. I wouldnt pay that for it....prob £650 ish.

We'll see, i still think the 318Is engine is the way to go.
