Article from 1988 BMW M3 V10 project

Before >>

Body was acid dipped to remove all paint and glue leaving us with a bare metal tub to work with. Unfortunately a poor job was done and will later be cleaned up.

All new parts arrived from BMW including all E90 (2007 3 series) subframes, suspension, rear end, Moton shocks and Brembo Gran Turismo big brake kit with 15" rotors. Last but not least the new M5 V10 engine power plant with transmission/differential and components.

Chassis build contd. Engine fitment

Once the motor was fitted and MORE measurements where taken the body was removed once again to remove the motor. The body was then placed back onto the chassis to weld in the permanent frame rails fabricated to fit the E90 sub-frames.

wow, the german equivalent to putting a LS3 engine into a 1st or 2nd gen corvette or camaro. I like this idea and I am looking forward to seeing how it comes out
