Should fit straight in. Is it manual? Now would be a good time to fit a new clutch. Keep the exhaust manifold that came with the engine as they be different. I would also take the opportunity to replace the exhaust manifold studs whilst the engines out of the car. They're a bugger otherwise. ------------- AndyS Live each day as if it's your last - one day it will be. http://www.photostick.co.uk/view-933_BaurSig1.jpg" rel="nofollow">

Hi Gogs, pretty sure you'll need to use your 320 sump and oil pump on the new 5 series engine as the 'bump' will be at the wrong end to clear the crossmember. Cheers, Sandy ------------- E90 320d - M635 CSi - 635CSi Highline - GMC Typhoon - 4.6 P38 |
