Good tips. I did an s54 swap for track use and that is a whole different animal. Heat is the most important thing to control and you have to size coolers etc correctly to not ruin your track days. FI is even worse. Everything takes a few iterations to collect enough data to figure out what's actually needed rather than assumed.
I don’t think low budget is an unrealistic expectation. I think you making it sound like it needs to be a sema build is an unrealistic expectation. That’s going to scare people away from the swap. I’m at just under $1,500 for my swap right now and that includes some stuff I didn’t end up needing
Right the domino effect didnt hit this guy, i fix one thing then wanna buy brsnd new everything surrounding it. That's where the budget flies out the window lol @LowBoostFilms
Look nice and clean. I have a 1995 325i with 300K on the motor and a rebuilt auto trans. I bought it in Germany when I was stationed in Europe. I'm wanting to do a LS swap. I just subscribed to your channel. What state are you in?

Absolutely, I did so much To battle heat on track with my c5 corvette
1995 dakota, engine trand rear end drive shaft and i thinknit looks decent, 5 grand includi g 800 for the truck and i cammed the vortec 5.3 , 1 month
Nice. Trucks are easier to swap you don’t need new accessories that fit. Cars it gets tight
Don't rip it all apart right away. 100% it's so easy and so fun..at the time. Till it all gets unorganized and lost and absolutely anxiety causing lol
Yea it’s a costly mistake!

Every swap is different. People just think it’ll be cheap and nice looking too. Which that’s tough
