Price is getting awful near crack pipe territory, but I definitely have the wants.

Double? Bull Shit. That’s a S52, so it’d be a 3.6L needed to double the displacement

I know I know but “177.777777...(repeating)% of original displacement!” just doesn’t roll off the tongue as well

I did one of these swaps for a customer, the car was a rocket. So good.

This is exactly what I wanted to do for the longest time. Not bad if the car is fully sorted out.

What would concern me here is my same old trope - who did the swap, and was it done properly? Any deviation from stock has me thinking that something is going to go horribly wrong.

Yeah, but no.

Ti just don’t handle as well as a regular E36... with that much power, it must be sketchy.

Also, 11K is too much.

It doesn’t, but it is correct. And that’s all that matters to me.

Also, I’d sooner get a E36/7 over a shitty E36/5 with the 3.2L
