This engine + a manual transmission swapped into any M car is an absolute win every single time!

I'm just out here wondering how much a swap like this actually ends up costing.

Great to hear such a pure sound compared with all the turbo engines we’re used to these days. Awesome conversion. 👏

I myself have been trying to figure out the logistics of swapping one into a e82 chassis (135i, etc) with a 1M body kit. I've seen people saying it could be done from anywhere from 3k to 50k.

How freaking cool. Wish I had the money or guts to do this. An E9x is already such a special car. But my god this would be so much more fun to drive than a lot of other v10’s that come to mind (huracan, r8, e63 m6…)

Except the weight balance, which in the above case could be a nightmare as well. Remember the Z3 prototype from BMW with a v12, having 72% if its weight on the front axle.

I’d personally do the V10 if it were for the enjoyment of it over track use. Then again, I would’ve done it in a E90 or E93 instead. The top down with this soundtrack and power would be quite the experience

Everyone: S85 in M5 E60/1 - STAY AWAY WORST REGRET EVER, RIP WALLET etc.
Also everyone: But S85 swapped into (insert anything) is amazing.

If you can get the engine low and back via a transaxle solution plus drysump, it would a sweet race build. But at that price point you’re probably in for a Judd V8 which would be 1 million times sweeter.
