Description
This Stage 3 kits includes the most of the components needed to mount your engine into your BMW E30. This consists of Sikky’s industry leading motor mounts, trans mount, oil pan, driveshaft, power steering lines, headers and a wiring harness. Optional add on items complete the kit for a turnkey install.
Fitment Notes:
- Can be used on LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, L99, LQ4, LQ9, LSA, LS7, LS9, LSX and any other LS based engine using this engine mount and oil pan bolt pattern.
- Requires no modifications to the factory cross member or subframe and does not hang below the crossmember when installed.
- Required to run E36 steering rack and run eye ball arms for header clearance. The headers also require the use of our low profile steering shaft. Below is a link to the required steering shaft – SIKKY E30 Steering Shaft Assembly
- Manual Brakes – You will need a brake booster delete kit for the E30. This also allows for less clutter in the engine bay, and room for the drivers side head to not interfere with the brake booster.
- Requires use of a LS1 style T56 transmission. With the T56 this kit will allow for the shifter to come through the factory hole, allowing for easy and factory looking installation / operation.
- Factory master cylinder needs to be removed or replaced on this swap to allow clearance for the engine.

Wiring Specialties Wiring Harnesses
This wiring harness is specifically engineered for a BMW E30 (82-93) with the GM LS1 Cable Throttle engine swap.
NOTE for 1982-1986 E30 Models
- Due to the existing OEM chassis harness wiring age & it being inadequate to support a modern EFI system properly, 82-86 E30 orders will receive a self-contained version of the harness which utilizes a 5-relay Bussmann fuse block to integrate with ignition, fuel pump, two cooling fans and Auxiliary relays.
- You will need to manually connect a handful of wires for speedo, tach, coolant temp, oil pressure warning light, alternator warning light etc. These can be connected into the OEM body connector or wired directly to individual sensors & gauges.
- This option provides the best results in ensuring the more modern EFI system is not negatively affected by the existing chassis wiring in the E30. A Factory Service Manual or other wiring diagrams will be required.
