As title, has anyone fitted an S54 in the E39?

Just interested, a lot of engine swaps have no point, it doesn't stop people doing them.

Thank Dennis, I thought someone would of somewhere, I would imagine it would be quite a car, V8 performance with rack and pinion steering, it would be a bonus to me to hear that 6 pot noise as well.

If you wanted V8 Performance but with the better steering surely an N54 transplant would suit the car far better?
You could be right, like I said I read something good that got me thinking about it, I wouldn't own an E39 of any description, they just aren't for me, it's just a hypothetical question.
