I have a 95' and Im want to purchase a euro engine, and a euro tranny (6spd?). I want to know for when im ready, where would i be able to purchase the engine and tranny from? so I can find out EXACTLY how much these parts are going to cost, how long will i have to wait to get these parts, and any other little info i need to know. If any of you who has done this euro swap into a US m3, please help me out. and anyof you who just in general have any info on where I could get this stuff from. I would greatly appreciate your help! thanks! :thumbsup:

A new Euro 3.2 crate motor and tranny would cost well over $20k.

only $1500? that seems really cheap! I would think that alot more people would do this conversion if it were that cheap.
Here's a link about the LS1 conversion:

why are you going to put a chevy engine on a M3 ??? Buy yourself a Camaro.Comment

an LS1, the engine, alone can be had for $1500 not the full conversionComment

because the LS1 is lighter and creates waaaaay more hp/tq than an S52.
and the M3 is lighter than a camaro. So the math works out in your favor :thumbsup:Comment

i think in the end it still works out to be less than 20k just for a euro engine/tranny lolComment
