    Engine swap :)

    Just wondering about doing a engine swap in a e36 99 coupe.
    I currently have a 318is engine in and I can get a 325i vanos full engine, box, ecu, loom the whole lot, just wondering would it be a direct swap or is the setup very different with engine mounts and engine width and all that. Any help would be great lads
    Thanks

    Would it be worth it or would I just be better off lookin for a clean 325 e30?
