That works very well. A friend stuck a 283 Chev in his Austin Healey 100 back in the day and left the 60 spoke wire wheels on it. Never broke a spoke as the hard tires simply spun.He must have been a smoke and noise addict as he just drove it that way. Corners were more of a challenge than they were for most cars, though.

Just for clarification, the internals I think are the same but the case is different between the standard e36 and e30 (the ti/z3 cars are another matter, obviously).
Wow BigD has been working on that for almost 7 years. The work done & fabrication is very impressive. We'll start with the medium case, don't think we'll need the large case.
I knew ya'll would have good answers. Thanks
Having swapped in a 1jz into an e30, and had it live a long time. It all depends on how you drive and your rear tires.

I like the idea of updating to Medium case for my 318ti (relatively straightforward), but they seem to be hard to find here in upper midwest - or else i'm not looking in all the right places! Most e30's went to oblivion a while ago, and I have to believe there were fewer bought in Michigan than most of the rest of the country as well.
There are a bunch on eBay right now.
