Would prefer buyers for atleast half of it before it's parted out.

1994 RB26 long motor with a spun bearing, minus rocker covers and coil packs.

Driven less than 5km from where it first started knocking.

- Mint RB26 head, 92,000km - $1000 Or $800 without cams.

- Long nose crank + oil pump, crank needs a polish/light machine - $450

- Rb26 block - $450

- Front diff and sump complete - $300

- RB26 standard rods/pistons good upgrade for rb25 - $250

Or $1500 for everything, cheap!! ;)

Was going to build a 26/30 while i had this sitting around, but decided to get XD9's instead.

$1200 for everything.

That's less than half of what others are asking for the same thing at the moment.

Good chance to part it out and make yourself an easy 1k+ profit.

Not sure if the crank has any hairline cracks, but i would guess not because it was driven for a short distance then towed.

Oil pump is standard.

Motor is still complete, but can give you a refund if the crank is stuffed and can't be fixed with a light machine or buff.

Just noticed that, was meant to be $1400.

$1200 now anyway, absolute lowest I will take for it.

Can also put it on a pallet and freight it to anywhere in aus.

      Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?

      Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS

      Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
