BMW M3 S65 4.0L V8 Engine with 6-Speed Manual Transmission – Complete OEM Swap | Fits 2008–2013 E90, E92, E93 | 59,000 Miles

Looking for the ultimate powertrain swap for your BMW or motorsport project? This is a complete OEM engine and manual transmission assembly from a 2008–2013 BMW M3, featuring the iconic S65 4.0L V8 engine paired with a Getrag 6-speed manual gearbox. With just 59,000 miles (approx. 95,000 km), this full swap kit is ideal for high-performance rebuilds, E30/E36 conversions, or OEM restoration projects on the M3 chassis.

The S65 engine is a motorsport-bred, naturally aspirated V8 developed by BMW M Division, revered for its 414 HP redline at 8,300 RPM, individual throttle bodies, and F1-inspired character. Paired with BMW’s robust 6-speed manual, this package delivers unmatched engagement and performance.

🔧 Product Overview

This listing includes the complete BMW S65B40A 4.0L V8 engine and OEM Getrag 6-speed manual transmission, removed together as a matched drivetrain from a U.S.-spec M3.

Whether you’re replacing a blown engine, converting from DCT to manual, or building a custom M-powered project, this package provides all the essentials for a plug-and-play swap with OEM BMW fitment.
