I understand you wanting to build as I build my own cars. However, I suggest you look at these cars...probably the most developed e36s in the country. racingjunk add# 1292268, Chet Whittle's cars. Chuck

I have both of these cars listed on this site also in addition to racingjunk.com. The spares list is comprehensive.

Also note, these cars ran in 2006, at 1:40 and 1:39 BEFORE the track was resurfaced! Chuck

Best cars for the money, I don’t think you can build a car chipper and faster than these cars for less, best of everything on these cars.
I work on these cars for years from building it to the developed, long hours and hard work to get the speed out of them.
Whit the good driver no question top runners whit the dissent driver top 3 cars.
Two door or four door don't make a difference.

You can lead a horse to water but.....
I should talk though, I want to build an E46.
How smart is that?

I apologise again on going off topic. Get Chuck Stickley to build your motor and I doubt it will matter if you start with a M-50b25 or M-52b28. As I was saying before, the M-50 breaths better through the intake than the M-52 (see below) and has a more retrictive exhaust manifold so will see a larger gain in hp, so hp wise it's a toss up. The 2.8 will have a very slight advantage in torque, I'm not sure that it's worth the whole 100lbs though...
Now, if you're looking for a challenge, you should join us crazy's and build a Z3.....
Actually, since all of ITR had the process run on them I doubt there's a cars that's too far off target to really be hobbled. After all we aren't racing dynos are we.
The first two are of the M-52 manifold, note the plastic doesn't allow port matching, and the runners are narrow and skinier. The second two are the M-50, the runners are bigger and straighter, also note the orange gasket is the same size on both.

Interesting... Thanks for the info... If it doesn't matter much, then maybe a 92 4dr 325 will be the ticket as can get donors around $2000, and will put all new bearings, bushings, struts, brakes etc and update the motor anyway.... What's chuck get for a motor build? (I assume .040 over, balanced etc.).
