          What would good friends name be? Seen a guy I know talking on FB that he blew up his M20 yesterday.

              On the high end, Aurora Autowrecking have three M20b25 engines right now. $750 each. Was looking for one for a PRO3 car.

                    @Lance, though if the compression is good, and they warranty them to not be rattlin' rod bearings..etc, then $750 ain't bad. There's a long discussion on the Spec E30 site about cost of good used short block vs building or buying a rebuilt. Some say that the rebuilt motors are never as good as the factor assembled OG's..

                    Having just rebuilt my own, $750 is beginning to be a good option if this one dies this season..

                        Aurora Autowrecking have a 90 day warranty on their engines. I assume the warranty is for street car use only.

                          Thanks Lance. I just called them and they don't have any 2.7L blocks which is what I'm looking for I've decided.

                          I've got a couple 885 heads to play with, just looking for a 2.7L block.

                            I'll have a 2.7i here soon. Needs a couple valves. Not sure how we'd get it up your way, but throwing it out there...

                              There's a few in the Portland area. I know of one that was pulled out of a ITA car for a M20B25..
