I have a M3 motor and ZF 5 speed tranny for my 92 325i, however i dont have the time or tools to install them. I was wondering if i could get some direction as to who to bring my car to in the central Florida area to install my engine and tranny. hell, if any of you guys are close to me and can do the swap let me know!

Crystal river to be exact. I'm about 1 hr north of Tampa and 1 hr west of Orlando.
I'm gonna sell the M50 engine complete with motor/tranny/ecu/wiring harness/etc. I'm not really sure what i should ask for it, but maybe i could work out a trade or something. Someone does the motor swap and gets my old engine? That would work for me! :D

Your best bet from what I know is to drive down here to Miami and have it installed properly and professionally by Active Autowerks! Ask for Rey, hes my buddy!

I'm in Gainesville, it's quite near Crystal River. For an engine swap you're probably looking for a lift, and a winch to drop the old engine out and hoist in the M3 engine. I don't have one...
I do have a lot of other tools though. Let me know if there's anything you need.

I already have a cherry picker/jacks/jack stands/ and a air compressor at my disposal. I basically need someone to look at the engine and tell me what else i need to isntall it as far as sensors and other minor crap.
