BMW E30 V8 Drift Engine Mounts for M60 M62 S62 SWAP

With these V8 drift engine mounts you can fit a BMW V8 of the M60, M62 or S62 type into a BMW E30. They are custom-made engine brackets that hold the V8 in place in the engine bay of the E30. The set consists of two mounts and spacers with which you adjust the height of the engine in the engine bay.

A V8 swap into an E30 is a popular project for drifters who want more torque in a light and agile chassis. The trickiest part is often getting the engine neatly and firmly at the right height. These mounts take most of that work off your hands.

Installation and delivery

The V8 drift engine mounts connect the V8 block to the engine mounting points of the E30. With the supplied spacers you determine how high the engine sits in the engine bay. This lets you create clearance for the bonnet, the steering, the oil sump and the exhaust manifolds.

An engine swap is a job for someone with experience. Test-fit the engine dry first, check the clearance all round and also look at the angle of the driveline towards the gearbox and propshaft. Only tighten everything for good once the position is right, and check the bolts after the first test drives.

You will find more parts for your conversion in our engine mounts for swaps category, and in the general engine mounts category.

A V8 in an E30 stands or falls with the engine mounts: that is where every good swap begins.

Why choose these V8 drift engine mounts?

Making mounts yourself takes a lot of time, measuring and fitting. This set is made specifically for the combination of an E30 with an M60, M62 or S62, from thick steel and neatly finished. With the spacers you can set the engine at the height you want without having to improvise. That leaves you more time for the rest of your swap.
