S52 Long Block, No accessories. $1000

[Unearth078]

I have this motor taking up space after i purchased a freshened s52 to complete my swap.

This S52 has around 140k Miles on it. Owner was both a BMW and Porsche enthusiast (owned a sweet 928 race car! and the mintyest m3) all cars received regular maintenance. When the original owner cross threaded a spark plug he opted for a lower mileage motor to get him up and running, while he re-freshened this s52. He never got around too it though!

The leak down numbers are as follows:
Cylinder #1 5%

Cylinder #2 damaged spark plug threads, after getting it to seal was 3%

Cylinder #3 2%

Cylinder #4 5%

Cylinder #5 4%

Cylinder #6 4%

As the motor lacks any timing accessories on it, I used a compression detector to determine the start of the compression stroke, then removed it and replace it with a wooden dowel to determine TDC for the cylinder, and then put the leak down tester on the at cylinder and recorded the results.

This is a true long block with no accessories and no sensors. Pull the head and do the valves and attend to spark plug 2 and have a good motor.
Located in 19047!

Cylinder head was very clean when i swapped back on the OBD2 valve cover.

lmk if you have partial trades as well, camber plates, bucket seats, fresh vert top and frame, plastic bumper swap... bounce it all off me.

Can you be more specific when you say it "lacks any timing accessories"? Maybe post a few pictures? GLWS.

Ill get pictures,
But the only pieces it now dosent have is water pump, and thermostat + ALL sensors unless someone wants a set of obd2 knock sensors?

also i doubt ill be parting, having requested days off taken away is a small window in at what i like to call work.

Also, im a little more flexible on the price

Well its either yours or another one that doesn't need any machine work for the same price. If the other one sells I'll buy yours. Yours really isn't that great of a deal truthfully but for someone looking for just a longblock (ie: me) you take what you can get.

Example:

Here's an S50 with everything including trans and UUC shift kit for $2000.
