Looking for advice before buying an M50 swap Year 1995 Drivetrain Miles: 184k Engine: Non-Vanos M50 Diff: E30 2.9 to 1 Adjustable Koni Shocks 328 Front Brakes ABS: Not working Optional parts that can be included: 3.0l rotating assembly Mtech Springs Bilstein Front Struts Price: 3k Seems to me to be a great deal, I've read a lot of members state that the M50 isn't worth it in comparison to S50 swaps out there. But +60ish HP while retaining decent mpgs seems like a good Budget beater to commute to work. Thoughts from the forum? Also suggestions as to what parts I should take from the seller? I'm not in a place to have a garage full of parts. But the thought making a stroker with the 3.0 assembly is an enticing project down the road. |
