Do you have a write up on this swap? I have an e34 with a factory m5 suspension and a 750il parts car. What do you have to modify engine / tran mount, drive shaft , clearance and wiring?
I was going to tell you to take it to the Nurburgring to see what it could do, but I just checked the map and it is almost halfway across the world, and driving there is out of the question. Not because of the distance, but the countries you would have to go through.
The 6 speed manual in the e34 540i and 850CSi is the same ZF box. It's good to do it for fun, otherwise the M60 is a more advanced engine, has got more bhp/litre and it's lighter. Take care not to burn the clutch and enjoy the soundtrack, that V12 sounds good!
That is a widely spread false statement. That is not the case, V12 manual gearbox only works with the v12. And the M60 manual transmission only works with the M60.
In this case an adapter plate was made so that the Getrag from his m20 would bolt up to the m70.
Love it. I want 550i E34 soooo bad...

AMAZING sound! Wow, if only the N54 engine in my 335i sounded like that! Great work!

OK. That means the 5 spd from the 530 v8 will bolt on as well. Thanks for the info.
