    The car is old. Don't care if it has low miles or not. You should be replacing the cam seal, tensioner, be;t and waterpump at a minimum

    Ryan... said: I was averaging almost 25mpg with 80% hwy driving in my 540i. Ran like a top, 128k miles. I imagine in a lighter chassis (like the e36) it wouldn't be unreasonable to get 26-27, which isn't much worse than your typical e36 325i gets anyway. the m60s are fine when cruising at constant speeds, but throw in high revs/stop and go and it all goes to hell. no one is going to swap an m60 into an e30 and then use it on for 80% highway driving.  driving enthusiastically with the 6banger is still going to get you 22-24mpg, but driving the m60 that way is going to be 16-18mpg. my point is probably moot since im sure if you can afford to do such swaps, gas mileage isnt really important to you.

    snap oversteer said: This is the truth. When you had the gopro strapped to your head I could hear the deep low frequency thunderings from your Paul Bunyan voice.  I think Brian is expecting some National Geographic HD cinema camera to take an exhaust clip video with.   Heck, string up some tin-cans and let us hear it through a soup can.  I wish Nat Geo would record my car. That's like 2160HD (That's twice as much 1080!) So crisp. The issue with me mounting a go pro to my car, is there's no, "Soft surface" such as your chest mount/helmet. In my car, it's doors, trunk or window. All of it's gunna shake/pick up the vibration. Maybe I can have jamil video record me. [image: ;)]

    Video no longer exsists. Because youtube in the last 3 years has decided they wanna be dicks, and follow copy right laws. Who actually does that?
