WTB s52 engine HAVE CASH IN HAND

[germaniac]

I'm looking to buy an s52 engine for a OBDI Conversion/Swap. I live in Atlanta GA, and would prefer to pick it up anywhere within 14hrs of driving each way. I have $1500 right now :D and will buy the first one I get the best price on. I realize a lot of people are asking more for their engines but the truth is that they are not selling like that right now. The last one I saw sell was on ebay for $885 plus shipping. Unfotunantely I bid $1,000 too late and the auction ended and I'm left beating my self up because of it. Let me know the milege of the engine, where you are located and your minimum price via pm and we can make this happen. It would be nice if you knew the compression numbers too, but not mandatory. Only interested in running engines.
Thanks,
Taylor:cool

Eh, imo the S52 US engine is overrated, an M52 can perform almost as well as an S52.

S52 Euro engine is godlike, but the extra displacement over an M52 should help alot in performance.

GL!

You know my first reaction to this was "You must be insane". The s52 has a ton more horsepower and the 328 has that wonderful restricted intake. But I admit that while I can take them apart and put them back together I don't know "bored and stroked" from my rear end. So you must have good reasons for making this statement.

I'm all ears.
