Hi Everybody
I'm selling my s52 long block that is currently still running in my e30. I'm tearing the car apart again this winter so I figured I'd make a little direction change while I'm in there.
-Around 120k
-Pulls strong with zero hiccups
-It smokes. I pulled it from a track car that was driven hard. I just checked the oil every time I drove the car and added as needed. About a quart every couple thousand miles? Maybe more.
-It leaks slightly at the oil filter housing, which I just noticed for the first time when I took a couple pics a few min ago.
-It doesn't leak at all from the oil pan, which isn't included in the sale. Some RTV where it mates to the timing case solved that when the pan went on the first time. Has never left a spot on my garage floor
-Block looks dry. Never any coolant in the oil when changed
-Does not include the e34 oil pan but I'd be happy to give someone a spare e36 pan if they needed it with the sale
-No intake mani or harness included
I'm sure I'm forgetting some things so please just ask. I'm recovering from some surgery so I'll be at least a couple weeks before I could pull the motor. I can take you for a ride in the car to show you how it runs if you're a serious buyer. That's only good til they salt the roads, though.
SOLD
A couple pics. I know my engine bay is a mess
