Looking for m52b28

[twigg]

As the title states. I am currently looking for a m52b28 with everything expect obd2 stuff it will be obd1 swapped no big deal if obd2 stuff is included. I am not in a real hurry as I am in afghanistan until next aug sometime which makes it pretty hard to find stuff that hasn't sold already. So if anyone knows of anyone trying to sell please message me I can make arrangements for payment and pickup through a friend I'm trying to find something before I get back. Thanks:D

Got an S52, but no M52.

There is an E39 being parted in Fort Collins or Denver CL, can't remember, but he wants something astronomical for the motor like $600

S52 > m52

Meh, For bare block? Or all accesories harness etc?

I know of an M52 bare longblock for $125 right now. Running condition

damn, really?

Yeah, I'm tempted to scoop it up for Frankenhimmlersteiner 29er turbo motor :D

Dude, upullandpay sells complete motors (w/o accessories) for $199. Granted, you have to do some hotwiring to see if it runs, but surely it isn't worth the extra $400 JUST to know if it runs.

Hmmm... I wonder what they will sell just the block itself for.

They don't list a price for that. I would assume they would still charge $200 in that case. May as well just snag the whole motor/harness etc for $200

There are a couple yards that only charge $150 for a complete motor and accessories, in fact the last time I was at one of those yards there was a lovely e36 328 that had gotten t-boned with a fully intact m52 in it... just sayin, they are really easy to find for really cheap.

I would really like to have an s52 that would be amazing. The m20 ate shit the day before I deployed and I do not feel like messing with it. It has had a hard life and just over 200,000. I have plans for the entire car and only a certain budget which I cannot really go past so I'm looking for the best bang for your buck type.
