I'm going to be pulling my M42 from my ' 95 318ti for an upcoming swap, and trying to determine if the engine has much resale value, and what that would be. The engine has ~130k miles, and the following has been replaced in the last 1k miles (3 months): water pump, thermostat, plastic coolant pipe, plugs, matched fuel injectors, belts, idle pulleys, vac hoses, motor mounts. Vehicle is daily driven. It will be complete (engine, alternator, computer, wiring harness, intake, exhaust manifold), etc. It is from a manual car. Probably be sold without the AC compressor as I think I can re-use that on my conversion.

Engine is in central Florida, between Orlando and Tampa. I would probably not ship it.

Anyone willing to help let me know what the resale value would be? If you have interest in purchasing, I'll obviously be interested in that as well :-)

Thanks!

Glenn
