- Sorry it's been so long since an update but here is the car moving for the first time since the swap. Only a short video. Still lots of things need finishing but having it move for the first time was a great achievement
oo boy you have done a dream swap!!!
Thanks
I love that slow lethargic crank of the engine into low but powerful yawn of an idle. Its Like awaking a beast from hibernation
Sick job man! I was very surprised to see such swap exists at all. Keep up the great work and of course keep us updated about what happens! Cheers, best of luck :)
This is gonna be awesome!!!
What a hero! Good luck, can't wait for more videos
Thanks very much. I'll try and get some soon but I can't drive it on the road yet till it's finished and had an MOT
The dream swap
I waited for this swap for long Time!! Terrific Job! Make alot of videos driving Please!!😋😍❤️
Soon I will make more videos, I've not driven it on the road yet
A true definition of "built in shed".

Best swap ever
Dream swap
Dreamcar
Amazing. Mashallah.
I thought I'd seen it all when I saw the E46 V10 swap but this might be even better. Was the body an M5? Salvage or what?
thanks very much Ross, the body is an M5 it was broken for spares before I got it
thats the whip frr
Pls put long tube headers.
New video?
Where is it now?
goalss
What did this swap cost you and is it worth it?
Did it fit like a glove?
No not really but now it does
you use stock harness and ecu? or a standalone?
I'm using the stock DME and integrated the E60 harness into the e39 harness
@@rodknockers2036 could you please make a video of how you did that and what kind of problems you ran into?
I wish I could but it's probably too late for that now as it's mostly done. If you start with an E60 harness and remove stuff one thing at a time and test that's what I did
What gearbox do you use?
Did you guys change the rod bearings?
Not yet, it's on the job list but I wanted to make sure I could get it running first. Just incase there was issues doing the rod bearings that stopped it running
@@rodknockers2036 very cool swap I have seen one swapped into an e30 but with the vanos blocked off. does this swap have vanos control?
Yeah this has the full vanos, it's running the factory dme
@@rodknockers2036 How much this S85 V10 engine cost in UK ?
@@henzo7087 around £5k for just the engine
Wow! How did you manage to fit the steering rack? Was that the most difficult part?
Hi, the steering rack fits fine, the steering column/shaft on the other hand was very difficult and took some working out
@@rodknockers2036 Did you have anough space there to install turbo in this beast ?. I own 540I E39 and thinking to swap this engine too
@@henzo7087 I doubt there's enough space for a turbo, not enough room for the factory air intakes
@@rodknockers2036 So its not possible to tune it after install the engine if you want ? and did factory air intakes fit in your car ?. Thank you for answer
@@henzo7087 not with turbos, maybe a supercharger. The plenum fits now the front suspension is redone to allow it sit lower. The air intakes with the filter in do not fit due to height
