Default Hello! About to Drop LS1 into e46 BMW!
Hi everyone!

Just joined the forum to learn everything I can about the LS1 and what can be done to it. I grew up around Ford Cleveland 351's but never the chevy small blocks. Looking forward to being the first to drop in an LS1 into a sleeper 330i BMW. Don't hate...the e46 chasis is probably one of the best car chasis ever made, but with a motor to lack. Actually bought an M3 motor to swap in, but it was crap when I received it. Got back to thinking and realized what I've always known....there's no replacement for displacement!

Can't wait for this swap!
