I was in the junk yard today pulling some parts off of a 7mge when i turned around and noticed there was a bmw right behind me and so i went to look and it struck a bell FFIM have no idea if it really would work but it looked pretty neat and just curious of what you guy think

i was thinking of fabbing it and using it as a upper runner?

I don't know BMW stuff at all, but kinda seems a waste to tear into that to make a ffim for a supra. It's almost easier to use our stock lower and fab from there. Or make them completely from scratch. I've done several both ways. The biggest thing for most people is a tig welder.

Pull the motor and sell it...then buy a good ffim from suprasport or RonR

I was thinking that too, but unless the back end is crushed from some accident, it's possible that it's there because it doesn't run.

The runner spacing is wrong, the runner shape is wrong, the plenum was designed for a 2.7 liter NA, etc...

Not to mention that the runners are probably smaller than the stock 7M runners.
