BMW S54B32 Engine & 6-Speed Manual Gearbox | Complete Drivetrain Package | 3.2L Inline-Six | Genuine M Power | Ready to Install
Bring true M performance back to life with this BMW S54B32 3.2L Inline-Six engine paired with the 6-speed manual transmission — the legendary drivetrain combination that powered the BMW M3 E46, Z4M Coupe, and Roadster.
This complete set delivers the perfect foundation for a restoration, engine swap, or OEM replacement, offering the raw sound, reliability, and precision only a genuine BMW M Power engine can provide.
This 3.2-liter BMW S54B32 inline-six and six-speed manual gearbox were removed from the seller’s 126k-mile E46 M3 in 2018 after it sustained body damage that was not feasible to repair. After being removed from the car, the seller went through the engine and reports replacing the rod bearings, VANOS camshaft bolts, timing chain, and guides, among other work.
