    The front half of the driveshafts are all you need when doing a swap like this, if you put the front half of the manual driveshaft onto the original automatic rear half of the driveshaft it would have fitted without needing modification!
    All e36s and e46s are like this, for example small case rear ends have a longer driveshaft, so if you pull a manual conversion out of an e36 318 the driveshaft will be too long to fit into a e36 325, but if you put the manual front half of the shaft onto the auto rear half it will be the correct length as the rear half is a certain length to suit what rear end you have.

Also did the coding to remove the TCM from the start up roster. Piece of cake. I also made an upgraded shifter linkage from the transmission to the shifter assembly.

    Coding out the gear cog is easy. You need to remove a line from vehicle order in INPA. I know because my 330Ci Clubsport was converted to manual and I did it on that. I think it's #250 that has to be deleted.

    For the love of everything holy, check the Aux Belt Tensioner is the later 3 point mount hydraulic type. The earlier ones were two point mount concentric spring tension, and prone to failing. 750gms of ally lump flailing around the engine bay connected to the drive belt makes an enormous mess of everything. Speaking from experience of my 99 B3 3.3 doing that very thing.
    The tensioners were often missed on Alpinas because the service bulletins didn't apply to them, only the regular cars.... despite them using the same peripherals. This also allowed the main dealer to deny any responsibility for fitting the older type.
    Only other B3 3.3 thing to note is that it will eat its rear suspension bushes between services - the 3.3 puts out a lot more than that boggo 328/330 setup can really cope with.

    Great content on V2 as always, nice little nod to Mighty Car Mods as well with the over exaggerated In The Bin whilst facing the camera 😂
