BMW E36 LS1 Swap OBDI or OBDII?
I'm looking for a car currently to do this swap with. I was wondering if it made any difference as far as buying an OBDI car or an OBDII. The E36 was made from 1992-1999 (including the M3), so they were made both ways. Is one easier to do than the other?

No emissions testing where I live it's really all about how easy the swap will be and how much money I'll get for selling the m50/s50 vs the m52/s52. I might be taking a while with my car also, just because I want to find a manual sedan, black/black, without a sunroof, and with clean title and no bodywork needed. I'll find one eventually, but it's a bit of a waiting game.

The iron clunkers sell for about the same across the platforms, like 300 or so for the m50/2 and 2500 s50/2. Auto to manual swap is easy, black on black will be easy to find, you will have a very hard time finding one without a sunroof thou

If the M3 motor sells for that much more, it makes about no sense for me to buy a regular E36 and raise it to M specs, correct?
