my 87 bmw 325

I bought a red 1987 bmw 325 for $400, it had a blown motor and the local bmw place said it would be about $4000 to fix it.

screw that

so i put a 305 small block chevy v8 in it instead and threw away the inline 6 it has about 300 hp and flys down the road
lots of fun

the reason i joined was for some advice I dont like the 2.93 rear end and i was wondering if anyone knew were to find some 3.73 for better acceleration. i am also having trouble with the speedometer, it works half the time and jumps around a lot. i replaced the sensor in the rear end and it still does the same thing, please help me.

ill try to get some pics of my car real soon, im am not a computer wiz at doing that kind of stuff so it might take a while,

i have another problem, sometimes i want to order parts for my car but some web sites dont have my car listed on them, i own a 1987 bmw 325, most websites i go to only have 325e or 325i and others if i want to order parts what body style is closest to mine

yours is closer to a 325e, but it pretty much wont matter since you took out the M20B27. . .
