    Default M50

    So ive had my 87 325 for a little while now and i want more. after some research, i found a m50 swap is somewhat cheap and easy. the only problem is, i cant find a reliable place online to buy a m50 vanos engine besides ebay.

    Is there any websites or local places that sell these engine? im located in canton. thanks.

    Craigslist, Pull-A-Part, and Strictly German are three places to locally find M50's.

    I bought a '96 328i off Craigslist that had been rear ended then parted out the front end and two wheels for 1/3 the cost of the car. Selling the black leather interior for $500 means I'll only have $500 total into the M52 swap with the ZF transmission plus I still have 4 complete e36 doors left to sell ($250 each at Strictly German). I have more invested into the Euro BBS wheels than I do my e30 and swap combined

    I'd only trust Strictly German in Braselton.
