Hi fellas!
can someone shed some light over my ignorance? which 24V engines will fit in an E30's bay? what are the issues related to fittment, electronics, transmission, etc: I never thought of swapping another engine in, but with so many (more powerful, may I add) options to the m42 out there, I think is a viable option. Also, I�m not sure which year/model do some of these engines come with. Thanks!

m50 is a good cheap swap.
