M30 four barrel intake manifold w/air cleaner

[MAD02]

Price: $100

Location: Seattle WA

Description:

I know this isn't really 2002 related, but I figured someone might know someone who might be interested in these parts.

 

These were taken from a late 70s Euro 7 Series just for the sheer curiosity of them, but I'm moving and trying to thin out what I have to pack. 

 

This is a factory BMW M30 4 barrel intake manifold and factory air cleaner. Both are in good shape but can use a good cleaning. The carburetor is a 4 barrel Holley EconoMaster carb that I'm sure needs a rebuild. 

 

Looking for $100 for everything. If you have any questions please just ask. Thanks!

First that intake originally came with a 4 barrel Solex carburetor ( I have one somewhere).

I'd like to see one of those on an 02. I'm willing to bet it works better than the 38/38.

My dad had the same idea years ago. We tried attaching the 4 inner intake runners to an m10 head, unfortunately the spacing is different because of the m30s larger cylinder bores and spacing.

 

To do it you would have to have a custom manifold made or adapt one meant for another 4 cylinder engine. I found a offenhauser manifold for a Pontiac I think that looked like it could be adapted.

 

Or try mounting one on top of a e21 320i or e30 318i one piece intake manifold.

 

Or use the early e21 320i 3 piece lower manifold part and a custom adapter made from a 4 barrel carburetor flange and some piping.

There was an M10 intake manifold for a Holley 500 2 barrel carburetor made for American V8s, but I haven't seen one for sale in years.

Yeah I think they were made by Offenhauser, I've seen pictures of one of those, but they were only made for a few years and are super rare.

 

Plus we really wanted a 4 barrel for dual Dcoe power without the hassle of tuning dual carbs.

Is this manifold still available?  I'm looking for one for my Bavaria.

Is this manifold setup still available?

[Mike Goble]

I'm still interested in this manifold if you still have it.

Call Ben at 2002AD. He has one available with the original Solex attached.

He doesn't have one.  He said he has the carbs but not the manifold.

Alright, well I know where there is one if you need it badly enough. *Badly enough = Pretty rare and not that cheap. PM me if you can't find one anywhere else.

One reason for the multiple inquiries is that the OP answered my first inquiry on April 29 but has been silent since then.  If it's been sold I'm okay with that, it's just a little frustrating trying to get an answer.

I understand the reason for the sale was an impending move. IF that move has happened, this part may be at the bottom of a bunch of boxes, the neighbors pool, etc. Patience, young Jedi
