If you gave me $17000 to mod an e30 the outcome would be much different and faster;)

Luckily I wasn't the one who paid $17k for all that haha, so I'm not too upset, but I agree

basically what the car had done was take a m50 block and put it in the car, but kept the m20 look to it, as a sleeper. said it was around 280hp.

L. O FUCKING. L

ONLY thing that could make sense is an M50 crank....but who would be that dumb to swap in an m50 crank?

I'm just telling y'all what I was told. like it said this is my first e30, and I am in the very early stages or learning everything in it. I never said I was an expert by any means. I almost feel like I'm on a firing line for some of these comments. All I wanted to do was show y'all my new car haha.

Looks like an awesome car to start with! You'll enjoy it

Probably mistyped engine code as mentioned.
304 cam? I'm no expert, but doesn't they require more head work not to break things and a little more than a Dinan Chip to idle properly/drive?

Neat car. I feel bad for the PO and that bill lol, but looks like you have a sorted car. Have fun.
