I considered this swap but a M60 came up super cheap. If I had a 318 this would be a major upgrade and cheaper than putting a S50B30US. Intake sounds great!

[@samisvideo]

That's a great swap!

[@OGBemfa]

Yep, it really is great!

[@Hardys-Mods]

sounds lovely!

[@KutayAydemir]

When will there be a new video with the e46? Until I get myself a 330ci, I'm satisfying my ears with your videos.

[@OGBemfa]

Soon! Currently testing the new camera and setup!

Nice car and good drive!

Thanks!

[@OEMplusRESTO]

Amazing video. Where do you place the mics? Sounds like one is in the engine bay?

[@OGBemfa]

Thank you! Yes one is next to the intake and the other one is above the exhaust in the back. The third one is from the camera (iPhone) in the cabin 😃 Btw love your videos!

@@OGBemfa i have eibach pro kit, H&R swaybars, polly bushings, same 3.45 lsd and schmiedmann on factory 320/323 exhaust, same brakes (from 320i but they are the same). And you need a 6 speed gearbox, in case you don't have it XD

[@wtfronsson]

We were planning the same swap, we already have the M54 and stuff. Trouble is, a good E36 chassis is not so easy to find in Finland. Or even a half decent one. They've mostly turned brown a long time ago. Unless it's a collectors something or other, which probably has an extra zero in the price.

[@OGBemfa]

Yeah that's true, clean ones are getting rare. But I'm sure there's some grandpa out there with a rust free, ulta clean E36 316i stored in a garage somewhere 😅.

[@CeRyrAs]

What is your differential ratio? I see that the third one is quite short. Nice toy !!

[@OGBemfa]

It’s 3.45 😀

[@Nicesh007]

M54B30?

[@OGBemfa]

That's right!

[@lupoed]

no engine bay? why?

[@OGBemfa]

Needs some more clean up work before it can be shown on a video 😅, it will be shown at some point though!

[@lupoed]

@@OGBemfa i hope so! 🙏

[@Bjellizs]

love the sound of the m54. i considered to swap out my old m30 with a m54 in my e34

[@OGBemfa]

You have an M30B30 or B35 in it? If it’s B35 I wouldn’t swap it for anything, because it’s a classic! Except the S38 of course! If it’s B30 then maybe, but still… an m30 is an m30. They’re getting rare! Keep it as it is and enjoy the sound of a single cam straight 6, which in my opinion is nicer than dohc 😃!

[@Bjellizs]

@@OGBemfa Thats true. but the head on the engine is trash. is hard here in norway to find parts that not is made of gold. the prices are high. the sound of the old singel cam is nice. i have schmiedmann headers and super sprint exhaust on it. i was considered a 290 cam and some itb on it. the cool thing with the m54 is that is not many here in norway that have it in the 34 road legal. and it is easyer to find parts for the 54

[@qers]

Do you have an overview of how much the M54B30 swap cost?

[@OGBemfa]

Well, the owner really did a thorough job on the engine and added some upgrades that aren’t really necessary for most people. I don’t know, you could do it for €2,000 or for €5,000, haha. It really depends. But definitely not under €2,000!

[@qers]

@@OGBemfa I can't even find an M54B30 over here for €2000, so looks like I need to have this done in another country.

[@broy504]

is there any post that says everything u need for the swap? :D

[@OGBemfa]

Lots of forums and youtube videos out there on this swap 😄. You just have to dig a little. I would write it here but I don’t remember everything by heart right now. But the main thing to get the engine in is: oil pan and wiring harness from an E39. Also the engine mounts from a 6cyl E36 of course. Other stuff you pretty much learn and improvise as you go. If you need any info just send me a DM on IG and I’ll try my best to answer anything you want to know 😄. Best of luck!

For this video, just and iPhone 13 Pro. But I changed the camera and setup for the new videos which will come out soon! There's a little preview at the end of this video 😄

[@lukko000000]

Hi buddy, i’ve done the same swap on my E36 320i. I’ve recently done the M50B25 intake manifold swap, DISA valve deleted, Vanos and many other thing replaced. Unfortunally still need a map because the engine hesitate at low rpms unfortunally (Maybe for DISA that isn’5 deleted in the software actually). Can i ask you where you put the vacum line of fuel line? Actually i’ve put a fuel filter of E46, that has FRP inside. Have you put the hose of vacum in manifold or on in the “F” plastic stock connector on the intake boot? Thank you 😉😃

[@OGBemfa]

Hi, clean car btw! Check this diagram: www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=DS61-EUR-11-2000-E39-BMW-530i&diagId=11_7534

[@OGBemfa]

We put the vacuum hose from the "Pressure regulator valve" - (number 1 on the diagram). So, the hose number 6 on the diagram goes to the fuel regulator on the filter. We blocked the thing that goes from the "F" connector.

[@lukko000000]

@@OGBemfa thanks mate! Actually i’ve removed also CCV valve (number #1 in link that you have posted). That part need vacuum for working and the pipe (number #6) make vacuum for this valve. With pipe FPR of filter connected in #6 this vale theorically doesn’t have the vacuum anymore 🙈 However i’ll try to put again in the original F connection because the M54 fuel line doesn’t work with full vacuum of intake manifold like on M50. However it’s a great swap you have done on yours, bit mor difficult on 4 cylinder base i think. Congrats 😃

[@90MinutenLang020Damsko]

There never was or will be a baby m3 e36, it's m3 or bmw e36 with 6 or 4 cylinders. The e36 never had the m54b30 so it's a kind of "sleeper" build. Never the less, Great car Great engine swap!👍

[@OGBemfa]

Agree! That’s why there is a question mark. It was meant in a way that you can get close to the 3.0 M3 performance without paying the M3 price 😀.

[@90MinutenLang020Damsko]

@@OGBemfa yes, the e36 m3 is skyrocketing, but every other e36 whether it's a 2.8 or 3.0 is lightyears away from the m3, only if it has forced induction, but that's another story. I've had maybe close to 10 e36 (a long time ago) my last one, 328i sedan, no interior, engine with all the goodies, bigger MAF, bigger throttlebody, inletcam m54b30, software, exhaust supersprint from engine to the back, that thing was fast as H and i didn't stand a chance against the m3 3.0 and 3.2 s50 (track and straight road)

Buonasera you can clearly see its quite far from him I don’t find any normal scenario where this could go wrong. I agree but not in this particular case.

[@ikaros4203]

doesnt get much better, you need a Z4 2.7 ratio steering rack though for all those hairpins! and maybe sway bar upgrade to fix the bit of understeer beautiful sound i miss driving my S52 so much, 4:50 it would pull hard at those RPMs with the 3.2 liter displacement

[@OGBemfa]

Steering rack is coming, sway bars aswell + a lot of nice stuff 😁! Yes, or even better - S50 or an S54 would basically be perfect for this car… The end goal is of course to do that!

[@nvl2691]

A healthy M54B30 should pull hard than that at those engine speeds, especially in a light E36! Bemfa, did you rebuild the VANOS and DISA valve?

[@OGBemfa]

⁠@@nvl2691Maybe it doesn’t show up on camera but it is quite a steep hill here! But you are actually right, VANOS was not working properly here due to the faulty exhaust camshaft position sensor, but recently fixed it and also got the ECU properly tuned and now it’s pulling even better than here 😃

[@nvl2691]

@@OGBemfa I instantly recognised the failed VANOS behaviour (whether from the unit itselft or a sensor) when you floored the throttle, my 320i 2.2 does the exact same thing when the intake cam sensor fails. Does it have any other mods? Catless headers, M50 manifold etc.

[@OGBemfa]

@@nvl2691 It has Schmiedmann headers, and high flowing cats, into an E36 M3 Supersprint Racing exhaust. It also has a cold air intake. Engine internals are stock except for new main and rod bearings, a billet aluminum water pump and billet oil squirters.
