M42 Engine & Manual Tranny - 130k miles $500
 

I am pulling the M42 out of my 318ti for an M52 swap. This car is my daily driver. Engine runs strong, no known issues.

New parts since I have owned the car, since July:

• Mobil 1 in engine, Redline in tranny, BMW coolant
• New belts
• New idler pulleys x 3
• New plugs
• New water pump
• New plastic coolant pipe
• New thermostat
• New vacuum hoses to / from ICV
• New vacuum hoses to fuel injectors
• New flow matched fuel injectors
• New motor / tranny mounts

Things that will be sold with the engine:

• Long Block
• All bolt-on accesseries, AC compressor, alternator, power steering pump
• Intake including the sought after M42 intake
• Exhaust manifolds. You can have the cat section too, but the heat shield is loose, needs to be removed
• Engine wiring harness
• DME
• Transmission & Clutch
• Engine mounts

I also have a manual tranny 328 (my engine donor) wreck that you could pull the clutch pedal, etc. from if you are trying to do an auto to manual tranny swap at the same time

Will include a few misc. M42 parts, extra ICV, intake boot, MAF, intake gasket, etc.

Have not attempted to dress-up the engine, or make the engine shiny. This is exactly as driven photos.

Asking $700 cash picked up in Lakeland, FL for everything. Lakeland is approximately half way between Orlando and Tampa, FL.

Some interest but no commitments yet. Just getting back from a quick trip to North Africa on business and can pull it this weekend if a buyer pops up.

Willing to split the engine and tranny up.

$600?

No one in the central Florida area needs a decent M42 with manual tranny?

interested shot u a pm

I am interested but I am in NY and that's a hike to Florida. Oh well.
Good luck!

All pulled and ready to go. The 328 donor is long gone. Will include the 5 speed shifter, and the driveshaft as well. Reduced to $600, looking for someone to come quickly and get it of the garage.

Someone in the southeast must need this

How about $500? Seems cheap for a fully functioning engine / tranny.

Damn that's a good price......I am sure it will go quick. I wish I was closer.

Heck I thought it would go quick at $600.

Dude if I had a truck I would of been picked it up

Uhaul, $20 per day plus $0.60 per mile for a pickup :-)

Lol yea comes out to almost the same price of the engine after gas

You can rent a small open uhaul trailer for next to nothing but then you would need something to tow it with.

I am going to put it back up one more time on Craigslist locally before I start to part it out.

Parting it just seems like a shame.
