      Question...
      Is the e36 m42 PS pump and e30 m42 PS pump the same? Mounting components the same? I think the only difference is the pulley but not sure. Help

          What is m20 life?

          I pulled my m20 with close to 450k miles, still ran like a champ. Now another buddy of mine swapped it in his car and has been abusing it for 6 months now. So again, what is *m20 life*?

            Yea, pulled mine with 250k and perfect compression, sold it and the new owner said its been solid since.

              You're looking for an excuse to put a 24v in it.... Keep building the 24v motor, and keep driving the M20 hard.

                    What do you need? I have rods and crank in excellent shape. Also a freshly machined s52 block fwiw.

                        Cool. I've also got a handful of leftover swap parts I don't need anymore. Trans brace (for the g260), twisted selector rod, obd1 fuel rail, obd2 rail, obd1 throttle body, e34 throttle cable, probably a few more things I'm forgetting

                            Also depending on how quickly I work on other projects, I'll have a fully bolt on 24v swap exhaust for sale
