92 5.0
6,500mi on the rebuild
Previous rebuild to stock
3 months to complete the swap.
Only things I've done so far are timing and adjustable fpr.
Total weight is 2750 with me and a full tank of gas plus tools.
Future plans: A top end kit and better exhaust. Eventually a single remote mount turbo.

Comments, complaints, complements are all welcome.

Welcome to the MF! This is a really cool swap, you definitely have the unique aspect going for you. I bet your car hustles down the street being so light with a 5.0 under the hood!

You'll find some really cool reads and meet a lot of awesome people on this forum. It looks like you have some cool plans coming up as well, definitely keep us posted as your build goes on!

Let me know if you ever have any questions.

-Dan

I had a 1980 euro model 316 with a four speed when I lived in Italy fifteen years ago.
I gave it a good refresh and drove to Germany and back without a trouble.
I've always loved the handling/feel of the 3 series.
