it's exactly the same engine you just need to use the e34 mounting brackets, the e30 oil pan works, if you don't want to plumb in the oil cooler that the e30 uses the adaptor will be in your old block, unscrew the oil cooler adaptor and the threaded part from the old block screws right in

thats wht i tot, but the old mounting can be screwed into the new block since its not alligned, the bracket is smaller. weird but its true.
