1996 BMW M3 'LS Swap'

Listed for $25,000Sold
1996 BMW M3 'LS Swap'

Overview

Built to attack the canyons, this Techno Violet E36 M3 has significantly more grunt thanks to a LS-1 V8 engine swap. A more aggressive cam has been employed along with ported and polished heads to unlock more power, and a high flow catalytic converter helps reduce pumping losses. The subframe has been reinforced and the suspension has been upgraded to help make this a well-rounded performer.
