Hi all, i'm looking to buy a VN or VP as i want to use the motor and box and wiring loom to do a transplant on my '71 3.0Si BMW. What i want to know is......what other parts from the VN/VP can i use as spares for my VR ute, ie: doors, front screen. Or do i just get a VR as a donor/parts car?
Fuel pump, rear brakes, maybe front but it depends on what model VN, front doors, electrical switches and parts that are the same both inside the car and under the bonnet, light globes, some of the airconditioning parts maybe, there's probably more but thats all I can think of for now.
Why do you want to put a V6 in the BMW? The 3.0L is injected too, and being mechanical injection it is more reliable, and those engines are quick. The 3.0L BMW also had 149kW from factory as opposed to the 125 from the VN or 127 from the VP.
