Anyone seen my engine!?!

Post by beemerguru »

I had an M90 engine built a few years ago by Schulba in Belmont. Usual upgrades, port/polish heads, schrik cam, balanced, hi-comp, stainless headers, etc.

He had it on an engine stand in his office.

BUT I went by his shop yesterday and there's a not very nice notice on the door from the San Mateo County Sherrif about :Do not enter under penalty..etc. and it looks like the place has been cleaned out..and no phone.

And now no engine, close ratio 5 speed, or drive shaft.

Here's the engine...please let me know if it shows up anywhere.

And yes I know it's a little over the top but it was supposed to go into a great '81 Euro.

Wow, that sucks. No way you can track down the builder online or contact the police to find out what happened to the stuff?

Working on that..the Chief of Police is a beemer customer of mine and will reach out to him when I get back from Greer this weekend.

This is not what I had planned.

Hey Greg, Bob her from formerly Sunnyvale, chiming in :-?

Surely there must be some info somewhere :D

Hoping for the best outcome, wish I had that mill :-"
