Right Mr Sam. These are probably 2 of the better sites to visit.
http://www.m50manifold.com/
http://www.bmconversions.co.uk/home/m50manifold.html

Dont be ripped off by people selling you an expensive kit!! You can do it yourself with a bit of work On E36coupe.com have a look for posts by ""527alpina"" ( IIRC ) he does what look to be good, neat ready to fit manifolds - but you pay for it from what Ive read....

Also have a look on;
e30zone.net
r3vlimited.com
e36coupe.com
forum.bmw5.co.uk

There is a vast wealth of info out there, mostly on the BMW forums.....

Even Ebay has ""kits"" for sale. I might even have a manifold in my shed..... I'll have a butch if your interested
Anyway HTH, Ben

Just had a quick read at one of the forums and it was saying the std.2.8 will toil to rev above 5k rpm mine will rev to 6500rpm no problem do you have a manifold part number I can cross referance just incase it has already been done. Cant ask the guy that owned it before me as he has ran out of breath.

If you have a look at the pics on http://www.m50manifold.com/ you will easly be able to tell. The 'original' 2.8 manifold is the same as the 2ltr :0 and is quite skinny. The 2.5 manifold is probably 45/50mm wide at each runner, if that makes sense

P.S do you know about realOEM????

Thanks for the info folks

Links have lots of good info, some I had seen a while ago, some new. All good stuff
If anyone is looking for a 328, mine will be up for sale soon as it's not getting used - pm me if you want more details ( N reg, Tax & Test, scabby in places but everything works, recent tyres, great engine, etc - will be asking around £1000, drive away with it from Newcastle )
