WTB: Cylinder head, or engine. M50TU, M52, S50, S52.

[2.5-12]

my replacement S50B30US has 3 cracks in the head. looking for a crack free head (can be bare or loaded.) or a full motor.

let me know what youve got.

[2.5-12]

nobody?

[thull]

I have an M50 and 2 M52s, with a little under 200k on each. PM me if you'd like more info

[ejohnson]

Erik, texted you.

I want to add that the double vanos M52TU doesn't work for my application :/

[ejohnson]

I have had tons of interest in my engine till they find out its dual vanos then they dont want it

[2.5-12]

I wish I could use it, but the differences between M52 and M52TU engines... well, its mind boggling they called them both M52s.

all I know is they can not be converted to OBD1 and the head certainly won't bolt to a S50B30US block

[ejohnson]

Yeah, Everyone that has wanted my engine just wanted the block for a aluminum m50 swap.... never would work... I guess I will have to find a blown engine e46 323i to put it in.

or a 328/528. you could have a really nice running driving car for next to nothing...

in fact, theres a white E39 528 on cl right now for 1800 with a bad HG...
