Performance built S52 - SOLD
This engine was built for a BMWCCA C-Mod, NASA GTS, NASA ST and NASA E0 race car. It is currently installed in an E30 club race car. This engine would be an excellent candidate for either an E30 swap car or an E36.
With over $10K invested into this build this is an excellent value for the buyer.
This engine is very fresh and runs strong.

Less than 10 hours on the bottom-end
Less than 1 hour since head gasket replaced by OMS (idler pulley broke on track, head gasket replaced as precautionary measure, head checked by machine shop checked the head and everything was perfect)
Recent DynoJet dyno run produced 265 RWHP and older DynoJet sheet making about 10 less horsepower is posted in the Photobucket. The tune is conservative running with rich (more fuel at the high end) and conservative timing.
