Hmm I always wondered where this car ended up. Looks good so far.

Not a fan of the wheels but then again it's tough to make an E38 look bad. Still looks mean as hell.

LS swap - there is at least 1 documented E38 build out there (see LS1Tech and BF.C Engine Conversion section). As you said, it draws heavily from the E39, so you shouldn't have any issues. Where did you source your mounts? What oil pan? What manifolds, or are you going with LTs? What are you doing for the rest of the exhaust? Driveshaft?

Wiring is time consuming but not impossible.

Looking forward to some great burnouts
