It's an '87 535is. I'm driving a 528e now and I'm very much looking forward to the jump in power (again.....WOOOHOO!). The info below was from the owner's add.

"Engine rebuilt, new timing chain, all switches, sensors, fuel lines and pieces,
MAF sensor, fuel pump, water pump, thermo, Schrick cam (292 degree, I believe)
Rebuilt head, several new valves, new pistons, rings, oil pump, rod bearings,
K&N air filter etc. I have the paperwork. All engine work was done by

It has a Contorti chip, though it's not installed. I took it out to troubleshoot
some idle problems last year and never got around to putting it back in. Idle problem
was simply a vacuum leak

Rebuilt driveshaft, guibo, u-joints, limited slip rear diff. 1999. (don't have papers)

SI-board batteries replaced 1999, reset works fine. I have custom reset tool that I made that will
go with the car.

Fuel pump. 3-99 (have receipts)
