WTB: S50B30 US - long block only

[e30austin]

Looking for one for a customer car. Don't need any of the accessories, aside from an e36 oil pan and valve cover for transport, as I have a complete motor to transfer parts off of.

I guess I should reiterate that I am looking for a good motor, nothing with issues, no projects or stories - something I can drop in the car and have it back on the road again.

An S52 long block would work just fine, too.

Bumping this to see what's out there.

For you

Only missing a valve cover and a couple bolts

Close enough! You could always use a bicycle box for a valve cover and you will be set

Bumping this again. Still in need of the same thing.

Have a customer, who bought an S52, from someone on this board, and it's nothing more than a paperweight (engine is seized)...so, he is willing to pay up for a known good, documented, running engine.

I have a running s52 still in the car if interested. All cylinder compression between 150-155psi. 169,532 miles automatic. I’m currently bleeding the cooling system and will try to sell as a complete car, but I may be interested in parting out too. Let me know.

I'd buy the whole thing, for the right price. Text me - 503.967.3800

...or just slap an M52 with an S52 head in it, I think there is a guy selling one locally.


Also, check with Ryan - I though he mentioned we had a short block that came with that half built E36 hillclimb car he has.

Sold my M52 a month ago.

Need a long block at a minimum, a short block puts us basically in the same spot we're at. Will text him now.
