adding pics.
There are multiple ways one can go about this - the cams and everything else is good and is in one piece. This is an upgrade for any M50/52 engine. Gives you a large power increase with a stock M3 ECU with a 2.5L or a 2.8L engine.
Also, if you like, the motor can live again - one can either machine the motor and use a thicker headgasket + use as-is for a turbo project, or use a slightly thicker tolerance fit headgasket gasket for a regular normally aspirated build, due to an inability to machine the head on an S52 motor a lot (none is the factory recommended amount), and this one had about 0.004-0.010 inches machined off of it if i gather it correctly.
I need this gone relatively quickly - I want it out of my mechanic's shop and some money to give to him to partially cover the expensive mess that was this project.
Cheers,
