    engine swap

    hi

    my car is 728 e23 with L jetronic, "banana" intake manifold
    my engine need to be replace.
    the only engine i found here in israel is e32
    m30b30 with motronic injection system
    i will keep the L jetronic system and the intake manifold.

    flywheel?
    distributor?
    engine mounts

    00 MRoadster '83 745i,
    Just my opinion, but if you can get the wire harness and ecu from the e32, you are much better going with the Motronic.

    I can't remember of the top of my head, but does the e32 even have provisions to mount a mechanical advance distributor?

    i need to replace the timing chain cover and put the old one that can get the old distributor
    then put a special screw in the end of the camshaft.
