    Series 3 109 engine conversion BMW M57 6cyl diesel

    Proven solutions HD flanges half shafts pinion etc More interested in seeing an existing conversion to work out the position of engine and box relative to bulkhead, gear lever situation, rad / intercooler versus front series grill placement.
