    Default couple pics of my 633

    i made a custom cluster out of the old one, partially because if the cable drive speedo and partially because it's cool, ill take some real pics when it's done but for now these resized camera phone jobs will do


    m30b35 from a 90 535 and the 5 speed that came with it

    clean ass m30

    ya gotta get a little creative as the modern m30 doesn't have the back 2 bolts on the right side for the mount bracket, they eliminated them from the block casting but i overcame it with a piece of 1/4" plate bolted to the other 3 free holes and threaded the bracket so i could bolt the back two holes on, not that it needed it but as extra insurance i welded a strip of metal to the back of the bracket for strength

    without a plate to bolt the bracket to it would only be bolted to two holes in the block (the motor mount bracket is not that whole thing, the crappy pic doesn't really show it well, the bracket is only the back 4 bolts, the front part is the steel plate i bolted the bracket to) and either bend the motor mount bracket or snap a boss off the block, back in the day m30s had more holes in them part of the fun of installing a 90 engine into a 81 car, for my next trick functioning motronic 1.3 in a L-jetronic car

    it's alive
    wiring wasn't that bad to get the e34 engine harness hooked into the 81 633 body harness


    heres a early test confirming that the computer was happy and communicating

    hehehe i even have a functioning check engine light and of all things the 1981 tach and temp gauge seem to be working (no coolant yet but i hit the temp sender with a torch for a second and the gauge came up) i used the engine temp light wire for a check engine light
