difference between engines for '89 325i and ix
-
Hey, just wondering what the actual differences are between the M20B25's in those 2 setups relating to mounting for the ix tcase?
-
completely different blocks, they arent interchangeable. are you trying to put an ix trans on a i or the opposite? either way, it is not bolt on, and i can only imagine it is not worth the time/money to figure it out

IX->I IS a NO GO (sorry, this happened to me...) I->IX should not be a problem

Thanks for quick resposne guys, i should have searched before i posted the thread though because there's plenty of stuff on this on here.
-
I believe not much is different. The oil pan and dipstick location are different.

^ SO WRONG. sorry, I found this out the hard way, I say it once and for all. IX M20's WILL NOT work in an I car!!!! It is missing a hole in the block for a pressure relief valve! I cannot be done!
