Yes, this is my first post, and I'm sorry for it. I've been searching and searching, but I can't find the answer to what I need to know. I just recently acquired an 89 E30, it's in good shape, and I'm really enjoying driving it.
The problem I have is that it was advertised (on Craigslist) as having the M20B25 engine block with 885 head. I took this to mean it had the original 325i engine installed. When I went to meet the guy, he stated it was a 2.7L block from a 325e. I thought I had mis-read the ad, until I got home and verified the ad indeed, does say it has the B25 engine.
So what I need to know is how to tell for sure what engine block I have, from the outside, fully assembled. Again, I have been searching, but I haven't found anything that's useful. Thank you in advance!
