    They towed it with a strap for 650miles!?!!

    Lucky bastard! Wish I could afford an s38b38 for my car! :hitler:

    Keep us posted on the surgery. And of course post some footage of the monster in action when she comes alive! :twisted:
    That's a S38B36, no coil on plug ignition.

    If all goes well I will have mine done for the 2010 E30 Picnic. Nice to see others looking at this swap again over the S50 equiv.

    Also awesome on the OEM BMW block replacement. Mine had a brand new head put on it about 50K ago (only ~100k on the lower end). Awesome motors.
