Previous owner said: Guys this is my old bmw. It was totaled and is being auctioned off. I cant afford it but for those of you that can you should buy the E36 M3 out of this. S52 with m50 head and the differential is a 2 way with 4.11 gearing. Pretty sure the only reason they say it cant start is because i took apart the ignition to fix it and it was running when we crashed. But in all seriousness this car was bad ass and i would love for someone who restores cars to buy this and fix it.
Seems like this could be a gold mine as a parts car/donor. Wish I was closer...

Less aggressive cams unless the S52 pieces were swapped over.
Physically the M50/M52/S50/S52 heads are all identical, as well as the blocks.
In reply to Jarod: That's what I thought. I found it weird that he mentioned the m50 head, but then I realized it was a non m car and he just grabbed the m bottom end, it made sense.
hmm I wouldn't mind signing up and bidding on this http://www.autobidmaster.com/carfinder-online-auto-auctions/lot/13690924/COPART_1980_AMERICAN_MOTORS_EAGLE_CERTIFICATE_OF_TITLE_KNOXVILLE_TN/
