: how difficult is this?
: if i were to buy a e36 325i engine from bimmerworld or whereever, would i be able to swap it into a e30 325 w/o too much trouble?

: what is involved in this operation?

: thanks...

A LOT is involved. New computer, new wiring, modification of the tranny mounts (so it'll bolt up to the engine). It's rather simple but it's still an ENGINE conversion. Talk to Zionsville Autosport for more specific info.
