    Avoid this S52

    Customer bought this motor from a salvage yard under the impression it was in good running order. Popped the oil pan off to swap over a baffled unit and the oil pump nut was in the pan and the sprocket was off the pump shaft. Checked main and con rod bearings which were scored and the crank showed signs of extreme heat. The yard was very hesitant to warranty it becuase we voided the warranty by removing the pan. Either way, the yard seems very sketchy and it will probably end up on craigslist or ebay. Sorry, i dont know the name of the yard, but will try to get it.
