Hi!

Having a discussion with a car interested friend. We have seen a lot of succesful and less succesful modifications to cars over the years. Rebuildt Jaguars (some guy put the bmw 4.4 in a Xj series 3), another one put a 525tds engine in the same car. And other cars, like the RRC, the Disco etc have had interesting swapes done where the engine comes from another car.

I am not asking about this because i am planning to do it. I just wondered if anyone had. We came to the conclusion that the n57tud30 engine from the X5 E53 facelift, with 218hp and a 6 speed trans could have made an interesting swap.
 
Went to buy p38 with a Mitsubishi engine in it....everything worked as it should ...also seen a 330d in one as well....I was thinking the same ...a bigger bmw engine would be nice and intresting to see

A TdV6 conversion is available. The gearboxes are on the limit so would also need to be changed.
