he says price is negotiotable. is it a good idea?

[StereoInstaller1]

With E34 oilpan, yeah.

I got my nv m50 with auto trans and 130000. Computer, ps, alternator, etc
$400
Talk him down

[surebimmer]

Doesn't seem to bad. Does it come with wiring harness and DME 413 red label? Check the casting number on the head. If it's a last 3 digits of "400" the it is for sure. And hope the head's not cracked.

keep in mind theres a good chance youre just buying it for a block and hopefully OK head + parts. i would keep looking for atleast a running one unless youre rebuilding it anyway. id stay away from possible overheated ones, head may be garbage.

I found my M50 parts motor, and my M52 for 300 dollars each.

[surebimmer]

Offer him $300 sounds fair.

[brandonj1]

its the engine, ecu and harness, complete with all accessories for 375. if is a dme 413 is there anything else i need other than an oil pan?, my tranny is good and so is the clutch, i plan to upgrade before i install.

You'll need a brake booster. By ya that sounds like what you'll need. I would pull the head and make sure it's not cracked.
