Hi everyone,

has anyone put a 325 engine into a 320? i currently have a 320 (m50) saloon, but thining long term i would like the 325.

if it is not a major job (to much to change) i will keep my saloon (as i know it is a good clean, solid car) and just put in the 325 engine. But if it is a bigger job than i am thinking i will just wait sell mine and buy a 325 (coupe prob)

at some point i would like to strip the engine down and rebuild it that is why i am thinking of just buying the engine and dropping it into my 320 after it has been rebuilt.

Any help or past experiences would be great help

Kind regards

Darren
