          Maybe... depends on the s52.

          I just need to get the e30 rocking again.

                  So I've been driving this thing daily.  It still gets up and kinda goes when you want it to.  Freeway fun time is still fun!

                  After talking with Kyle, I'm going to pull the head with the motor in the car.  Hopefully the problem is with the head. 

                  Cams if I don't have to rebuild the bottom end??

                  This will happen once I get the e30 running...

                              Well, it's gotten to that point. After driving for any distance over 2 miles it takes 5-20 cranks for it to fire up.

                              http://www.adrianteo.com/files/cylinder-head%20_S54_.pdf

                              It doesn't look too bad. Are s54 cams hollow like the s52's?
