I'm going a different direction with my car. Included is absolutely everything you would need to swap a fresh top-end S52 into an E30. I bought the car a little over 2 yrs ago with the S52 installed but only test miles on it. The engine had 83K on it with a new top end and a new oil pump (welded nut). I've been driving it 2 1/2 yrs working out all the bugs, and in that time replaced the water pump and alternator with new heavy duty Bosch items, replaced every conceivable gasket, did a Dr vanos kit, swapped in a Euro HFM/TRM chip/injectors, and lots I'm forgetting. The car made 233hp at the wheels (dyno sheets available (uncorrected was 242hp)).
I had an Active Autowerke Supercharger installed and promptly blew the head gasket between cyl 5 and 6. Kevin and Tom at KD Motorsports took it all apart, inspected it, and sent the head out to be checked. The block was fine but one of the pistons has a couple of small dings on top; the insulator on the spark plug fell into the combustion chamber and bounced around before I shut down. The head checked out perfectly but it was decked to ensure it was absolutely true, and then the engine was reassembled using ARP head studs and an MLS gasket. There is now a new radiator, thermostat and temp switch, and the oil filter housing has aeroquip provisions for an oil cooler, although it is just a loop at the moment. I've been driving it a month and oil temp never gets above 200 even in stop and go traffic. Water temp never goes above 3/8 on the gauge.
S/C kit is pending sale and not part of the package.
What would be included: everything. And I mean, EVERYTHING.
1998 S52 engine with 96K, new top end w/ARP headstuds & MLS gasket
OBD1 swap
Euro HFM
New water pump
New alternator
New oil filter housing
all new gaskets
New plugs
New thermostat, hoses
Dr Vanos vanos kit

New tensioners
Headers (new studs and gaskets)
Full custom 2.5" exhaust w/cats (passes with flying colors). Finished with a gorgeous black Vibrant twin outlet muffler.

If you have a 325 you're all set.
If you have a 318 you'll also need a driveshaft/diff/axles (you could use the 4.10 but it's waayyy too short for this kind of power.
