WTB: M20B25 head

[Trucidatio]

Need a head for my E34 525i.
The timing belt snapped and well that leads to all sorts of enjoyment.

FML.

Let me know what you got.
Thanks.

Also, what are the chances of the head being ok?

[SpeicherBimmer]

Chances of head being O-K on your car? Probably slim to none. I can get you a head off a running car if you really need it...

[Trucidatio]

I appreciate the offer Speicher, but I couldnt even imagine the cost of shipping a head from Germany.

and ya i figure that the head is done. It was just amazing how little noise or violence there was when the belt went.

[SpeicherBimmer]

It'd cost the same as shipping from New York since I'm in the military. Just an option..

[Trucidatio]

Well, cost of head and shipping?

I would really appreciate it.

I have an 885 m20 head in the process of being built, and if need be I can finish it soon. 885 head with schrick 284/272 dual pattern cam, titanium valve retainers, upgraded springs, 3 angle valve job, ported and polished, cleaned, pressure tested, resurfaced with new seats and seals....etc. Lmk if your interested!

[Trucidatio]

thank you iX, but i dont think i would be able to afford anything like that. As much as i would enjoy putting a fully built head on this car, it would really deserve it also.

If this is an e34, dont you need an M52 head?

[Trucidatio]

This is an early e34 88-89 they used the M20B25 engine, in 90' they switched to the m52.

[MR 325]

No, the E34 didn't come with the M52 since it was an OBD2 engine. The E34 came in the US with a M20, M50, M30, M60, S38. :D

[Trucidatio]

My bad, still really new to the e34, considering I have only had the car for a week.

[Trucidatio]

B Randon.
I will let you know. I really need to have the head by next week.

[AsharC]

Pmd, never got a reply. Do you still need it?
