How much money are you talking about? |

| I recently read a thread from a guy who bought all the surplus parts from PTG (since theyre done with BMW) and I believe a slightly used motor could be had for 15-18k...IIRC

| otherwise an ls1 could be had for 2-4k and a new ls2 (your 400hp mark) could be had for 5-6k

| Hımm in here Turkey/Istanbul everything will be twice(money) But this is very serious project now or later ıt doesnt matter ıf ı swapt the E39 m5 engine +supercharger or turbo to E30 ı think the car goes freakin fast.Do you know the m3 Weight? |
| ||||
| the fact that it mounts further back is key!...I still say Ls1...but I cant say ive seen an M5 V8 in an E30...so start saving....what about a transmission??

| the engine of the e34 ///M5 should sit flush on an e30. the v8 and v10 variants are just crazy big for the e30 |
| ||||
| google it. the V8 M5 has already been done. It shorter than a inline 6, custom exhausts are the biggest neccesity/ expense. besides labor and the engine itself. Tranny options are probably the 5 speed out of the E34 530 V8 and $$$ custom. |

E30 M3 has a 50/50 weight distribution with 4 Cyl motor which makes it ideal for cornering, and that is why one of the factors why it's so popular, if you on the other hand will put the e39 motor in ther you will have to add weight to the trunk and it has to match the front. Plus e39 motor will require different differential, suspension, brakes, computers, speedo, it will all look ugly if done incorectly. Please think it all through, and calculate all the parts you would need to buy. |
