    Almost Complete M42 Swap + Salad Shooters, Valance & More

    Engine:
    The good:
    -Ran well, pulled up into the higher RPMs (I can send you a video of it running)
    -Frequent synthetic oil changes in my ownership
    -Everything works, includes all accessories.
    -Newer spark plugs + coils + wires
    -M44 timing chain tensioner
    -Doesn't seem to consume any oil
    -Mess under the intake delete

    The iffy:
    -The engine was not original to my car, so miles are unknown. I spotted paint pen on the block so it's from a dismantler but I do not know when it was placed in my car.
    -One bolt in the oil filter housing snapped while replacing it, still holds a perfect seal
    -I had a issue with the crank sensor when I first got the car but cleaning it and fixing the oil leak that leaked onto it seemed to have fixed it.
    -It runs warm at weird occasions, after flushing the cooling system after pulling it, the radiator seemed full of rusty water so it'll probably be a non-issue. There's no visible head gasket problems, none of the liquids have ever touched even down to the final drain.
    -----------------------------------
    The transmission:
    The good:
    -Shifts well, doesn't seem to have any problems with synchros or anything even when cold.
    -Clutch grabs well and doesn't slip.
    -Comes with a shift carrier with Garagistic delrin bushings, an E36 M3 shifter, and a Garagistic DSSR!
    The iffy:
    -Some of that good ol' Getrag rattle. Honestly it's probably the throw out or some shit. It's not that bad at all, I can send you a video of the car running in neutral.
    -Wasn't original to my car so miles are unknown.
    -----------------------------------
    Everything else included:
    -2 Motronic ECUs, one of which seems original to the car and has a Pro Formance chip.
    -A pretty minty driveshaft, seems like the CSB was replaced shortly before I got the car, hell the whole driveshaft may have been replaced.
    -A complete wiring harness with no visible problems.
    -The complete engine ignition system, coils and the distributor looking thing
    -A decent giubo
    -A full exhaust!
    -An extra ceramic coated header
    -----------------------------------
    Things to note:
    -I will be keeping the radiator for my M52 swap
    -The differential is pending sale so that is not included
    -The exhaust heat shield in the pic is not included
    -Valve cover and intake manifold are both wrinkle black
    -----------------------------------
    Price & Location:
    -I'm located in Monterey, CA. I will not deliver or ship, mostly because I don't have a vehicle to move the damn thing around in.
    -$450 OBO. I need this thing out of my garage so I'm motivated to sell. I'm also interested in trades of any nature.
