I would buy this and the bonus car with it in a heartbeat if I wasn’t unemployed right now.

Has no one put a good American V8 into one of these yet? If it’s a doable swap then it would most definitely fix the reliability issues the stock systems face.

Wonder why he didn't put it back together...?

It does look like someone has put a turbo LS into one. Kinja won’t let me upload the pic but just google it and it’ll probably be there. Also it appears that some wacko has put the v10 out of an E60 M5 in one.

False. There is no such thing as a cheap BMW project.

If I weren’t married this would be rotting happily in my backyard by 6am tomorrow morning.

Thats what it would do at my place too, but the price is too nice. Just convince your wife its like the 6 series.

So you need to buy the parts car in order to have an engine to swap into the other because the pieces of the cams are stuck all throughout the current engine? Is that what I read in the ad?

Its a prime candidate for a resto-mod. I’m guessing for about $15-18k in work.:

LS3 + Getrag + gated shifter + restore exterior and interior bits :D

Get the car in the backyard, and there’s a decent chance you won’t be married by 6am the following morning! Where there’s a will, there’s a way!

As much as I like LS swaps, I could never replace the V12 with one.
