            engine

            Sounds nice..altho I've HEARD POLISHING IS A BIT OF A NO NO ON M20'S. Sorry for cap lock there. 4k might be a bit hi considering m50/s 50/52 are cheaper// or close enough and dead stock reliable.

            You realize some dyno pulls would help greatly for sale..are we talking 185 hp....or 200 hp or?


            .....and where is the power?......4500/5500/6500/7200?.....

              Here is an offer. For a "built" m20, that has been in use for "a few years" and not knowing how much it has been abused......

              2k at the max. Are you trying to fund your s50, by selling an m20 at an unreasonable price/questionable history?

                  Soooo, does this thing have a 150k hard miles on it, in which case since it's a built motor it's on it's last leg? A few years, is that 2 or 10?

                  It has a forged 2.7 crank, but euro 2.5 pistons? What rods work with that combo? Or are you just selling a 2.7 forged crank with it?

                    Okay here is the scoop on the engine I built it for my red 1990 325is which is also for sale here anyway I wanted to go with the M20 because it was easy to build up and would fit back in with no modification unlike the S50 little did I know how expensive the end project would come to I could have put the S50 in and had money left over, so now to answer some of your questions

                    Here is an offer. For a "built" m20, that has been in use for "a few years" and not knowing how much it has been abused......

                    The engine has never been abused as the car that it was in was a weekend driver at best I have about 6-7 cars at any given time so this car was not a daily driver more of a garage queen. The engine had right around 5000 miles on it when it was removed and that was over a 6 year period I can take some more photos of the valve train and bottom end it still looks new

                    2k at the max. Are you trying to fund your s50, by selling an m20 at an unreasonable price/questionable history?

                    As for trying to fund my s50 project that’s been done, right now I am in the process of parting out a 97 e36 M3 for spare back up parts to sit on the shelf and collect dust just so I have back-up’s available if something bad should happen. The real reason is the engine is taking up space in the garage and I would like to get it out of there but to let it go for 2k I think I will just put it in my e30 touring when it gets here so no thanks.

                    Nothing says screaming like all caps. How did he get past the Anti-Caps feature on this forum?

                    Sorry, new here and don’t know all the rules or etiquette for the forums

                    Want to get rid of the SS MAF separately at all? If so, how much?

                    No sorry want to sell whole package complete

                    It has a forged 2.7 crank, but euro 2.5 pistons? What rods work with that combo? Or are you just selling a 2.7 forged crank with it?

                    No it has the original 2.5 crank and I rods, the 2.7 crank was not available at the time I built the engine (could not find one) so I put it together without it

                              U R selling car w/ engine for 5k?.....

                              and /or engine alone for 4k?.......




                              Youre asking price for m20 is VERY hi..and your details and reasons for this price are very unclear/weak/and questionable....no offense intended.

                              How did u come up w/ 4k/>>>>? is it based on the money spent on it?.....because its not market value.
