Hi folks, I'm trying to determine the engine type I have. I was told I need a new catalytic converter, and can't afford to pay my shop 1200,00 canadian dollars. So I looked around and found some for way less. But, it seems I need to know the engine type I have before making the purchase. My car: 1996 850 GLE, Engine B5252S DOHC. Apparently, to buy just the right replacement I need to know whether my engine is 20 or 10 valve? Any ideas? Thanks for your help!
In case you 2 are looking for cats, here are some that I am considering: for 20 valve

for 10 valve
