Here's were I'm at. I'm can compare other shops (if y'all have any others to recommend) but this is the quote that I'm looking at currently. I need to shave quite a bit off of this to make it work. What do you guys think are the bare essentials to have done on a pulled engine from another vehicle? (I am unsure of what vehicle or the condition it was pulled from, I can only assume it was an M3 as it does not have the Z4 oil pan and has 80,000 miles on it).

The other assumption is that I can just purchase this engine for around 3,500 and trade in my core components for around 2,200 and net 1,300 for a used engine and tackle whatever problems may lie ahead of it as the come with some rainy day fund specifically for the engine. I'm not sure if this is the best option, but it's the only other I can think of. I'm still working on reaching out to the right folks at BMW of NA. If y'all have any contacts there I would greatly appreciate a lead or two.
