Basically i need to know if this turds block is the same as an E30 320i's?

Ive sent him a message as im aware some of these 320's had 4cylinder engines in them, this is 100% a 6cylinder he tells me.

Anyone got an idea what this may be worth? (in frag!)

It'll have a carb on it that'll cause Andy and Pacer to spit and ward off evil.

Or some b@stardised mechanical fuel injection system.

I had wondered about the carb thing too, but that doesnt matter to me.

Basically if its the same block as an E30 i''l buy it, keep the block (as a 2.7 donor block) and most likely weigh the rest in!

Hi

If it is an 1980 model it has an m20 worth 25 quid, the 140mph speedo and inicators sell in the states so you would get your £25 back, if the fuel tanks are good they are worth a few quid as they are nla from any where.

Most e21 uk owners are on bmwe21.net if you want to break it.

e21's are cool.

I see the bids are flying in for that turd.

Yes mate it's a standard 2 litre block - but the only problem is that it has a mechanical fuel pump next to the distributor meaning two studs and a hole.
I'd leave it if all you want is a block...BUT for £25 you can't go wrong. It will weigh in for £50 as scrap and you could sell a few bits to the E21 deviants - bumpers to the USA for example. But you'll buy a short engine for a few quid as they aren't worth a wank. Ant has a 323i short motor in an '84 car I bought for him last week!
