Wammers I know I cant run it for corsa prices and I expected that what I don't want to do is spend out £250 to 450 on the plate 40 to 50 quid on a new tensioner bracket and then find out the head is U/S and end up spending £500 or so on a new one I don't mind spending the money that's not the...

but rather expensive to buy yes

what would you do the Harmonic balancer is putting me off keeping this engine

that's why I opted for new engine thought it would be easier

I can only go on what the guy said and that it was an e34 and it was taken from a rover 75 the engine looks very similar to mine are there numbers on the engine I can get the man to check? I thought the rover 75 were only 2l fiesel

this is what the guy said BMW E34 2.5 DIESel

the guy said its the 2.5 bmw e34 engine and it looks identical to the one I have
