    Bulletproof S50 (ARP, S54 Pan, MLS, Warchip, More!)

    SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is a complete performance rebuild on an S50. No expense spared, just about every part in this motor has been touched and freshened. This motor was built with ultimate reliability in mind, with performance bits added for good measure.

    If you know anything about these motors, you know what it would cost in terms of time and money to do such a thorough build yourself. All external fasteners have been torqued striped for extra security.

    Originally built as a NASA GTS Build with a goal of being extra bulletproof. Less than 1,000 miles on it following build.

    New Bavarian Solutions (Supercoil) Dual Spring Valve Springs (Overrev Protection)
    New Bavarian Solutions Titanium Retainers
    All lifters cleaned and checked

    Fresh valve lapping
    Head evaluated at machine shop for leaks: Seals perfectly, no cracks. Very lightly decked to ensure good MLS head gasket seal.
    Fully rebuilt Vanos unit. Quiet as a mouse.

    There’s a lot more money in this engine than I’m asking. The engine is currently bolted to a pallet and could be shipped, buyer pays freight cost. Can be picked up in 29072, I have an engine hoist for loading. And I know I'm a bit of an unknown quantity over here, I keep to lurking since I don't have an E30. Feel free to check my profile out over at Bimmerforums where I've sold thousands of dollars worth of parts and no issues. Same username.

          Everything all boxed up, prepped to ship. I neglected to get photos, but I threw in two sets (12) injectors. Both were refreshed/sonic cleaned and bench tested.

                          Will this fit in an e30 with the s54 pump? Or would I need to modify the subframe?

                            That's a good question, I'm not sure though. I believe others have done this on the E30. Might try a search to see.
