    i was offered a free eta motor

    i dont know any history on it a guy in wolfpack motorsports (sae formula) offered it to me for free said he needs to get it out of the shop before he graduates

    is it worth it, i dont have a car to put it in and the only useful think for an eta motors is to turbo it right

    Or to build a 2.7i with. If you don't need it, take it and sell the crank, pistons, rods and head, then scrap the rest.

                I've got 3 eta motors sitting around here. All of them were pulled from running cars, either swapped to "i" motors or wrecked (but confirmed running before pulled).


                $200 each- come get 'em. ;)

                  I dunno about the idea of paying for an ETA motor, but I do need to get an "i" head soon. So I'll be contacting you about that.

                    Please don't tell me you're going to build another turbo E30 that won't ever run right. :)

                      low blow matt! It ran fine damnit....for a car with no dyno tuning.

                      I just picked up a gorgeous 87 325e. So with this free eta engine, i may build a cheap 2.7i.
