We LOVE the M42 in an BMW 02. Jake did the first one on his personal car back in 2007. Sense then we have completed multiple of this same swap in house and have helped hundreds do the swap at home on their own. This page is meant to answer a lot of the questions about the swap and give you more information to do it yourself. We sell mounts and other parts to help you accomplish this build on your own or we can do it in house.
We hope this walk though helps. If you have any questions along the way feel free to contact us.
It is best to use as many parts from a BMW E30 M42 car rather than the E36 cars due to fitment with the intake manifold and oil pan.
