Default Complete Kitcar E36 Buyers guide
For those of you with E36 engines "Complete Kitcar" mag has an article in the October issue on using the BMW E36 engine as a donor.

It is also doing the E46 in next mnoths issue.

They show a few pics of engine bays which are I believe Sportsters, although there is the contact details for GKD Sportscars and Marlin

Yes, I've had a skim through and it seems a pretty good guide to the four and six cylinder BMW engines.
At least one of the Sportster pictures is Patrick's car.
It's worth getting a copy for anyone planning a new build or an engine upgrade
