I don't see why that would not work. Get EVERYTHING with the motor. That's the key, because you have to change everything, and finding it piece by piece will cost a fortune.

BUT, what was the output of the 325/328? Not much over 200hp was it? Maybe a supercharger is the way to go.

Bolt it on in one day, and you have 200hp with no other modifications. And, at only 3k$, I would expect it to be cheaper than even a complete 325 motor (unless you already have a 325/328 donor car (make sure it's an E36 model), then the motor is cheaper. If it has miles on it, why not bore it and do some head work before installing it? That will get you REAL close to the 240hp of the 3.2.

Food for thought.
