I have a 1994 740iL I purchased on eBay. It was purchased without an engine or transmission. I have read the horror stories about the Nickasil blocks and am just a little afraid of them. This car is pretty decent bodywise but I will not put a 7500.00 rebuilt engine and transmission in it when the car would only be worth 4000.00. So, I have a good V12 engine and transmissioin and also a 1988 750iL parts car. This swap looks to be very feasible but would like some feedback from any BMW techs or BMW gurus who could tell me if this is a good idea and what problems would I run into if I do this. I would appreciate all input.
