the B230 out of the 200/700/900 is a straight swap, there's 130bhp-ish for you. Or the 2.3 turbo from the 740/760 with some modification, also the B234 out of the late 700 and 900's.

I think someone here has put an 850 T5 lump in although it's a lot of work.


I'm not sure how you'd go with engines from other manufacturers. A V8 360 would be something to see :)
