    W201FTW - M104.980 CIS Motor Swap Video

    Hi guys, been a while. I finished getting the M104 into my car and finally got it to run. Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49W2vKivxP4

    I still have some more work ahead of me: AC system, transmission, rear main seal, etc... I did only the bare minimum to get the engine up and running for a quick test.

    He can upgrade later.

    Remove the EZL

    Keeps the same crank sensor
    Keep the distributor and wires.

    Just needs to add 1 smart coil and an EFI ecu that triggers off the three flyweights on the crank.

    If he wants control of the CiS he can do FCiS.

    Great work, road speed signal handled I take it? You're gonna want that cam solenoid working one day :) The EZL is subharnessed, you can implement that later one, I guess once you have all the parts.
