this is not the original engine that came with the car, it was a rebuilt engine that was put in around 1996. I just did a S52 swap and that is the reason I'm selling it. I would estimate the engine to be around 60k miles. i drove it during my high school years, but after graduating i bought a new car, so we parked the E30 for 6-7yrs. recently i just had the E30 bug bite and brought it back to life. i changed spark plugs, fuel pump, distributor, belts, I drove it until the alternator died. the clutch is also pretty new, it was replaced in 2000.
engine leaks oil, needs an alternator,ac not working, but other than that it starts right up and runs strong. engine is from a 318is.
I'm asking $700 OBO not including shipping. this is for engine, ecu, transmission(i'm keeping the shifter linkage, since i needed it for my swap), harness, 4.10 Open differential, driveshaft also if you want it. not sure what else but i will add it when it comes to mind, dont hesitate to ask questions.

It would be nice to see some compression reading? M42's do not have Distributors?

sorry i dunno how to do a compression check. i will try to see if that's possible from my friend.
well what i meant by distributor is the thing that feeds the spark plugs.
