Here is my new motor setup for my 1998 BMW M3 Swap.

Stock LS3 Longblock with 24X reluctor swap
222/230 .596/.600 lift, 114 plus 1 LSA Cam
Unported LS3 Intake Manifold
LS3 injectors
PTM 92MM Cable Throttle
85MM Maf
4inch Intake
1 3/4 New Age Hotrods swap headers
Dual 2.5 inch custom exhaust with Dinan muffler with Magnaflow Cats
ASP Pulley
LS1 Wiring harness and ECM
T56 Transmission
3.91 Gears

Pretty Happy with the numbers with basically a stock LS3 with small cam. It idles like stock.

Thank you for resisting the urge to go with a stupidly large cam. That is excellent power under the curve. Great combo.

Cool.

You expect the Bimmer strait six sound and get American V8 instead. really neat.

Thanks Patrick, the cam was one you recommended for another build, I got from a forum member. Very happy with it.

Just installed a BER Ported LS3 manifold, going to retune it next week.

How about you send Patrick his $50.oo check then. Seriously.

Really nice to see that Euro styling yet hear the American V8 badness.
I second the small cam choice.....love the stealth

You'ld hate to go through all that work and render the Volvo turbo badges
inaccurate. These LS transplants sure are neat stuff.......:cool:
