An S42 BMW Engine

Recommended Posts

Well this was a runner until Sunday when the dry sump return pump failed! I can't afford to buy a new one.Already spent well over my budget. This was last run in Clayton's F2 single seater  a few years back. We had the head rebuilt last year and it has been running in our 2002. We previously had been running an m44 with ITBs as a Road & track car. Then an out & out race car with between 260-300 bhp to be had. 2002 going back to a Road & track car.

You would be buying a dry-sumped m42 block with an s42 crank & pistons, tank, s42 head and extractors.

Buyer would have to provide a. Dry Sump Pump, ITB induction, electronics. (G4 Link).

Able Engineering. Feilding, had the engine running on Tuesday & declared motor was unscathed from the pump failure. Just need's new pump. 

$8800, ( This amount would make my Bank Manager happy with me again.)

Once motor is out will put more pics up.

What would you say drivability would be like if it was in a street car…

Was looking to build up a spicy m42 for my e30, but would cost about the same as this, and already have a set of RHD itbs, and be cool to have another S motor in the stable
