e36 convertible v8 goodness

[lox]

It's an m60b40 from a low mile e34.
I love the look of them especially with decent wheels and stupidly low.

What u gonna do bout the sump ?? Apperently the hit the subframe alpina one of dry sump seems to be d only option I've been lookin into this swap myself

[lox]

Yeah they are two options but the alpina sump is hard got and dry sump would cost too much so im just getting the subframe modified to let the engine sit down.

Should have it back at the end of the end of this month will update with pics then.

Small update cage underway pick up points for the subframe in
Engine is mounted ended up dropping the centre section of the subframe and steering rack 20mm il have to make up offset rack spacers to move the track rods back to factory position.
Wishbone mounting points stayed in the factory position.

The v8 is sitting very low and it's back as far as the firewall. The tunnel will need to be modified to accept the box aswell as the exhaust.
Im really impressed with how the lads in stone motorsport are pulling it together.
This car will end up as my perfect e36 I can't wait to get it sideways.

I have a full e46 330i brake set up to go into it aswell 325mm front discs and 280mm rear disc ... Or close enough on those sizes.

Its coming along nicely, some amount of work going in...

Thanks man still an awful lot to do once I get it back, im trying to do it right once and enjoy it from there on.

[lox]

Im kinda at the point where im wondering is all the work going into it going to be worth it.

This better be awesome when it's finished.

I think that will be up to you, saw the cage on Saturday and its sick looking. You must be pumping alot into this build, looking forward to getting my own car back too.

Well I wanted a cage that I would feel safe inside but wanted it looking clean.
