Might bring home a 6.2l ...

I've been calling the same wrecking yard I do busisness with about 2x a month asking for a 5.7 and t-56 for my e46 (bmw) conversion and he said they had a 2002 with an automatic and I told him I would pass and wait for a 6 speed car to show up.. he also rememered Ive bought a few motors from him and he was like I have a 2010 6.2l here.. Im like nah to much motor for the car Im putting it in.. and I said how much and then my ears perked up and said I will be by tomarrow to look at it and see what the deal is. Stupd good deal IMO, no front accessories .. the 5.3 will transfer, no intake ebay style it. I need to see about getting a spare harness.
Ive done some research from the time I got home till now, and seems like there is a bit of work to convert the 6.2 gen IV to gen III style.
Looks like 24x reluctor wheel, new cam, new cam gear set, new front cover and still reading about new knock sensor placment... havent finished yet. Trying to make sure I dont regret any purchases.
So the 5.3 thats in the truck now will go in the bmw
clint

anyone here on the board conveted a 6.2 to a gen3 before? im gonna run the stock 4l60 too ;0
