I am planning on checking out a car that supposedly has a m30 engine and transmission from a 1983 "European" 735i.
Question is are all European 735i's come with the M90 (shorter stroke & higher compression m30 variant)? What is the best way to identify this motor? I've read that they are suppose to have a 'L' stamped somewhere on the block.
Heres a pictures of the engine:

Let me know what you all think. Thanks!
