The E3/B3 and E5/B5 engines have nearly identical dimensions. The swap has been done about 10 years ago but I dont know of anyone else who has ever had sooo much jellybean love for the 121 to do the swap again.

you'd probably be up for 5-6k if you did it yourself. properly. but then you must account for a blown gearbox every 2nd week. you could go the extra mile and chuck in a bpt; but the bubble might pop mamoru.gif

Easily $6K and thats for a basic swap, then buget for a HD clutch, intercooler piping, 2.5 or bigger exhaust etc and $9K or more is easily chewed up smile.gif

B8 and BP is what your thinking of, they run the larger block, they would be a tight fit but damn that would be fun/scary
