      Bmw e30 m3 whit v10 engine

      I think this is one the best engine swaps that i have ever seen.
      I has the engine from the current e60 m5 under the bonnet.
      The m3 vs bmw m6

      BMW M3 V10 S85 vs. BMW M3 V8


      BMW M3 V10 vs BMW M5 E60 Evosport headers, RPI Scoops, DInan muffler and ECU

      Still have a set of an older 7-series available (same principle as with the E30 3-series) and have looked to see whether it would fit a first gen. Obivously it will but not w.o. quite some fabrication . . .

      Oh and before I forget: that's one hell of a nice conversion!! Thanks for sharing

      Interesting style of drag racing. Rolling start and then jump on it.

      It comes from Highway racing. Slowing up for a gap in traffic, and then punching it. There's a good amount of vids online on it. Some of these drivers are crazy and others downright stupid considering the traffic volume, and highway patrol presence on a few of those clips!

      I don't think I've EVER seen an engine sit that close to a radiator before!
      Its definitely fast but those V10's have an odd sound.

      I could see how a 3,000 pound car with 500 HP could be a fun toy.
      Specially in a sleeper disguise.
