    Calm your tits, the post was completely legible and made complete sense to anyone who understands english; and at any rate the specific term you had issue with had nothing to do with his actual question. Learn to read between the lines if you dont understand what a specific term means. Its not hard.

    OP you can use any period-correct engine from the same model car. Convertibles do not have different engines from coupes or sedans, you can usually use Wikipedia or something similar to find out what engine your car has, if its an E46 4 Cylinder it should be a N42 and you can use any N42 engine, though I think that was only used on the E46 3 series. Any coupe/sedan/convertible engine will work, they are not body style specific.

    I see no one is wearing their sarcasm goggles.
