Do a search under 525E E28.
That's a 'small block' long stroke 2.7 engine.
And not particularly appropriate in an E30..... works nicely in the 525e with slushbox, though.
I assume Alpina bored out the 2.5 to make their 2.7s.
The tastier E30 conversion is an M50 2.5 lump from an E34 or if funds permit, an M52 2.8. It's a bit of fun and games on the plumbing and electrics but Christ what a performer. As for your original query, contact John Burns, _the_ authority on older BMWs this side of the pond.
and no he can't have my shiny new-ish bottom ended+pistons M52 either :)
