Wow. :yikes:

The M5 engine in an E46 is brutal, I can't even imagine it in an E30.

Wow. If you put a 3.2L in a 3 series (an e36 anyway) they call it a 332. Any nifty numbering system for that beast? :dunno:

How much balast did he have to put in the trunk to get handling to neutralize? As is, that thing would be majorly nose-heavy.

That thing must fly he set it up right.

The engine itself isn't THAT heavy, but all the added braceing and other equipment add a lot. Not to mention the new subframe that hopefully won't get torn out by insane amounts of torque :D

If I dropped one of those in my car, I'd leave the moniker the same and get a custom plate: "S62B50" The right people would understand.
