80 Quattro V6 - Page 3

I bought the engine, box and loom from an Alpina E36.
I got the use of a lock up for 4 weeks thrown into the deal.

The engine wiring on BMWs is the easiest I have ever come across with regard to engine swaps.
Here is the engine with it's wiring sat on top.

Removed the gattling gun that is the M40 together with it's gearbox.

Few parts to find and then a few evenings work and I'll have a nice Alpina E30 2.5l 24v sleeper. It won't be going out in the wet.

E30 wrongness
