obviously, the purpose of your comments is that you are on a tight budget.
judging by the condition you say the s52 is in, i would have to say that (no offense) it is a stupid investment. have you bothered to even price parts/machining/labor for an engine rebuild??????? the s52 is a parts engine. if you are seriously considering buying that to repair it, you might as well just give your bank account number to a nigerian scammer.
you would be so much better off paying more for a low mileage engine you don't need to rebuild.
as suggested above, buying an a nice m54 at a junkyard where they are plentiful for 250.00 will give you the same horsepower at a fraction of the price. there is no reason in the world to buy an s52 in any condition when you can buy a good running s54 for less than 300 bucks.
btw....i don't think running a g240 behind an m30 is a very wise choice either. what is the use of having the extra hp if you leave chunks of gears all over the pavement the first time you launch the heck out of the car?
