Also, not sure if it helps but you could have my old pan for shipping cost to see if it would work with some effort? I dont know if you read my build thread but it warped too much for me to use. I didnt put any effort into stretching it back out though.



Hey there,,,,
Originally went with the PCM that came with the motor but a 2015 PCM is an E39A and V8Roadsters wont/cant flash that (E39 only) and it was for an automatic and I needed the VSS signal from the manual trans. Got a 2012 E39 for a manual transmission car off of Car-Parts.com for $100 or so. Had V8Roadsters flash it (VATS and Tune).


I think I'm OK for now on the pan. When I mocked up the current setup the motor was in the car. It was tight but it fit. That said,,, motor hasn't been back in since I welded everything up so you never know. I'm in the middle of wiring,,, dash is pulled apart. Once that's done motor goes back in as I need to do AC hoses (got my crimper in this week!).


Here's where I learned about the E39 PCM,, nice build.
