There is most likely a 100% garuantee that its all going to have top be customized and there is no kit for it. Good luck spending 10grand on a 5 grand car.

If he wants to then more power to him. Its his choice. Although I personally would consider it sacrilige (sp) putting a chevy engine in a BMW. I know it has been done though.

WHAT? Dont do it! If its power you want you could make your 6 faster for less money, not saccrafice weight and handling by just modifying your existing motor. maybe you like fast in a straight line? look out for those turns though.

hey i have a 91 750 that i am 90% done with, and it has a chevy 350 with a 700r4 i have started it and test driven it she is very cool. but if you plan to do this be sure that you have access to a welder and cutting torch and some very very good fab skills because there is no kit what so ever but if you want to do a porch there is a kit 4 that and they are very cool!
