Man I've been keeping up with your progress on the E30 I want to do this swap so bad and I have the full six speed swap watching this video is so much motivation thank you for doing the video
A little slob on the knob never hurt nobody
Very nice! Can't wait to see future projects on this car!
Dude!!!! I had a blast watching you enjoy this ride. Keep these videos coming!
I love how u guys doin it I just did my full swap m50 with big turbo I’m pushing 600 and I kno I can push more but u guys. Helped me and Motivated me to do it however when I seen the m60 now I’m jealous
Haha no need to be jealous, it's hard pushing m60 and m62 engines above 600hp🤣
Another amazing build fellas! Let's get those subscriber numbers up there! Best vintage BMW build channel out there IMO.
Sounds class
Would love a drive of it
Great stuff as usual boys.
Nice, can't wait to see you guys finish that K swap and get your feelings on that.
Sheeesshh i need this in my rust bucket!
Sounds like will really like the e30. The car does sound amazing.
Enjoy bro!!
A few months I eded my swap of M40 to M42,true the 16 valves in a four cilinders its cool,M42 its a nice engine also :)
Hugs from Catalonia.
after watching this video almost 2-3 times, i am deciding to go for the swap, i am gonna start the proper budget and parts needed soon! along with finding all the right parts based off some other build threads etc
Hell yeah!!
I'm a good way into my m60 swap here in the UK. The car is actually at the fabricators having a pair of stainless 4 to 1 manifolds made and full system. I'm building the rest of the car, just had to pay someone to make the exhaust lol. I cannot wait to drive it again
It is an absolute blast, I'm dailying it currently and it is absurd! I'm always trying to find a way to drive it more/longer
@DENVERBEERANDOIL here I am 2 years later 🙈 m62 bottom end all built up and ready for me to pull thr 4.0 out after Christmas. I have standalone management on its way to me as we speak. I decided to go that route as I'm planning to shove half a bar of boost down her windpipe after our 2024 nűrbergring trip. That's if I can find a bloody supercharger. Hard to come by in the uk
Loving this channel 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks! Cheers from the US! Help us spread the word and we can make more/better content!
im working on this same swap on my car! im going with the e34 booster setup using an e90 booster and master cylinder to support bigger brakes. cant wait to get my engine up and running
Updates??
@@alejandroochoa3541 it now has an s62. E34 booster mount works great and is mounted up but i can't fit the linkage on the firewall so I'm designing my own from scratch. Engine is in the car and wiring is mostly done. Need to set up a few other parts before i can start it.
Love your channel and all your projects!
I have an e30 and I think I want to do this swap, you guys say it’s pretty affordable.
How much should I budget for to complete this swap?
Glad to see this thing finished! Great work Hamish! Gotta love the signature sound of a German v8 with all that torque. The only thing drivetrain wise I would look into is an LSD. Not too sure if there is an OEM one that would work with the right ratio, since the case sizes matter. In the e34 540/6 the 3.15 LSD can be installed from an early e32 750. I believe the cutoff was something like '91 but you could check realoem if you want to verify the production cutoff date. I wish I still had my e30 parts stash because I would DONATE the perfect crack-free dash I pulled from one of my '87 325is.' That's how much I dig this car, and appreciate you guys.
Now Will, I'm telling you man the VH45/ 41 in an e30 is nothing silly. They are one of the most underrated and forgotten Japanese v8's. I would absolutely LOVE to build one. Do you have any details on that build at all? Like what you had to do for parts. If you had any pictures or info please drop a line bro. Nobody else really does them in any BMW, which makes them even more awesome.
Sure I'd be happy to share whatever details I can remember at this point. Shoot me a DM on Instagram if you have it? @mile_high_euros
if my e34 dies before the rebuilt m60 in it, i'm keeping that m60 for something else. what fun motors. ive put over 100k kms on mine. (70k before rebuild)
that sounds bad ass, so on a nice long trip you should get 25 to 26 mpg with that final drive ratio ?
You’re right in my backyard 🤟🏽🤟🏽 would love to check this car out and pick yalls brain on the swap as i really wanna m60 swap my 91.
for sure! hit me up on instagram @Hamdoesthing
wait you're in texas now? Which part?
in 2020 and the m60 is the best bang for buck compared to a s50
42 more hp (282 hp stock compared to 240 hp for the S50/S52), way more plentiful (a lot less expensive), and best of all, no special skills or tools needed to work on. BMW put this engine into a ton of vehicles (E32 7 series, E34 5 series, E38 7 series, E39 5 series, and E53 X5). Great job on this swap.
Way better bang for buck than M5x/S5x.
Currently thinking about swapping a M62 into my E36
E36 would be amazing with that drivetrain
@@DENVERBEERANDOIL That's what I was thinking. But as far as I'm aware there's no parts kits available so I'd probably have to get lots of custom fabrication done
@@meteormedia7021 Not true. Plenty of swap kits out there. Im going to be using a Cybul swap it combined with a Condor Speed wiring M52 -> M62 kit
I got a 89 ix, you guys should show some love to it
Yes good cars in france y love the cars depuis les annees 80 à leur sortie on y monter les moteur des serie 7 740 745 yes good motors
You said it was a cheap swap in the video I have an opportunity to get the engine for free how much would I expect to spend on everything else like labor and other parts?
Labor will be pricey if you're not doing it yourself. Everything else can be sourced for around 2-3k reasonably if you're a good sourcer kind of guy
@@DENVERBEERANDOIL thanks!
What about a turbo e30?
Been getting lots of requests for this. It is in the works my friend!
@@DENVERBEERANDOIL sweet cant wait for the video! Y’all are making awesome content too
would love to see a turbo m20 build!
Can I buy this swap?
Hamish loves his car, I doubt he would sell it
Just one 325 turbo the motors forger et adios amigos
The v8 bmw y love the compresseur bmw yeee is a bomba cars
