E30 Engine Swaps

 

Brintech has developed a full range of engine swaps using later model 6 cylinder BMW engines. Many will argue that the song of a finely tuned straight 6 BMW engine is one of the sweetest sounds you’ll ever hear. Our M54 and S54 engine packages have given the E30 what it needs to become the ultimate driving machine.

Our E30 builds are ever evolving with careful engineering and finesse to bring our customers the perfect E30. Below we will illustrate and offer what our packages can include and how they may contribute to getting your E30 where you want it.

What M54 engine options can we supply?

 

No E30 feels better than one with a built engine. All of our M54 engine swaps now consist of a minimum standard of a rebuilt engine. This includes new bearings, piston rings, machine work, a cylinder head reco and full assembly with new gaskets, bolts and timing chain hardware. The engines start at a price of $7250.00

For the enthusiast who is looking for that extra power, we offer a camshaft package by Schrick Cams, cylinder head port work, and ARP head stud kit. This additional option will start from $3300.00
