FS Feelers: M20B27, Getrag 260, newish radiator, chipped eta ECU, etc

[kronus]

Seems like my M30 swap is happening - I would like to gauge interest for the stuff that would be vacating my engine bay. Also, I need cash to get the swap going (beer fund :D), and thus need to sell off some stuff I've been stashing.

Shipping will be a problem as I have a very busy few months ahead of me in school, and running around to find boxes and shipping service for large items would be difficult. Smaller stuff is of course not a problem.

Stuff for sale: ($??? means that I have no clue how much it's worth and would like advice on that point)

Getrag 260 - 137K miles, no weird noises aside from the typical slight "Getrag rattle". Shifts fine into every gear. $280

M20B27 - long block, with all intake parts (including AFM, ICV, airbox, vacuum hoses), timing parts, flywheel/clutch, and IE shorty headers. 137K miles, runs strong. $350 OBO

M20 oil pan and gasket - oil pan is clean, gasket is new. $100 + shipping

027 Motronic 1.0 ECU with Jim Conforti/TMS chip (for ETA) - nothing to say about it other than "it works very well". $150 shipped, I will include the stock eta chip with it in addition to the JC chip.

Behr radiator with shroud and hoses - ETA fitment, was installed new 2 years ago. I can also provide the overflow canister if needed. $80 + shipping

rear IE strut bar - like new condition. $80 + shipping pending

Early euro valence lip - Sanded and primered, includes brake ducts, rare as hell. $200, would prefer not to ship



More pics and info here.

Late euro valence lip - pics incoming. Also fits the DB valence. Black plastic, rare as hell as well. Really don't want to let this go, but I need money, and it doesn't fit on my early valence. It will not be sold unless I run out money. $220, would prefer not to ship



More pics in this thread.

E28 M30B34 oil pan - same story as the wiring harness. $80

Complete rear Diving Board bumper setup. Clean, straight, the plastic part is "fuzzy" though. $20, please make it go away. It's polluting Farbin's backyard.


Posting here with your interest preferred, it's easier to keep track of that way. Thanks.

Interested in helping you dismantle said e30.

I'd be kinda screwed if you weren't. :D

I was thinking of getting a keg of Newcastle. Do you think it would last the whole swap between us, Greg, and Jesse? A keg fridge would not be difficult to get.

dyno charts of the above engine and ECU:

Crank:


Wheels:


Conclusion: it could use a tuneup and injector cleaning.

I know one would be a good start, but as long as we have our ducks in a row, it should not take more than 3-4 full days to do the dirty work.

Explain this duck alignment theory to me.

Kronus,

Not to get your FS thread off topic, but you should buy xxxlostsoulxxx's M30B34. I sold him the car, and I was the 2nd owner. The 1st owner used Redline Synthetic in it religiously, and I used Mobil 1 15W50 and 10W40 Full Synthetic during my tenure with the car. It is a really solid motor.

Best of luck selling off your stuff.

That's the engine I have my sights on. He was supposed to be calling me back about it right around now :(

have the engine prepped, and ready to go, mockup status fitted down to the radiator and hoses, then we make sure everything is there, and 100% ready to go ( on pallets in my garage ) then pull your car in and yank the engine. We want to minimize downtime.

Sounds like a plan. Still, good idea to have buyers for the stuff we're pulling so that it doesn't sit around and take up space.

[menusk]

let me know when u are ready and have a price for this, Behr radiator with shroud and hoses. i have a 87 325e manual, just letting u know for fitment issues.

[kronus]

The radiator is in my 87 eta manual, so there should be no fitment issues. Will let you know once it's out of the car.
