Look at the location of the OP.

To answer the question, look in this forum. There have been many BMW swaps performed.

Any ls motor will be a good match for your car.

I went with a 440 lsx


Went 11.0@130mph last time at the track and 186 mph at the Mojave mile

I went 207 mph last year in the rx7 with the new motor. I am using the 440 out of my rx7 in the m3 now.
