    Default E36 m44 gearbox with m52 engine

    So possibly buying an m52b25 to put into me e36 318ti with an m44b19.

    I want to know before i go ahead with buying it, will the engine bolt straight onto the m44 gearbox without any need to get front half of the prop shaft from a 325i or 328i? And will i need any other parts to make the m44 box work with the m52?

    Also would i be better off getting a new flywheel and clutch? If so what should i try and get one from a 325i or a 328i? Dont want to pay massive money for one budget is roughly 200-250 for a flywheel and clutch.

    Thanks

    Gear box won't last long also a change in prop and diff too.

    as said you'll need diff box prop and drive shafts. loom been a diesel one you have the front suspension might already be heavier then the 4 cylinder petrols so maybe you won't have to change the suspension. is it a road car? if not theres a company in usa that make a clutch called the f1 clutch for them and its very aggressive if you want it for track
