320 is a 2.0 litre hence the 20 at the end of the number.
The E36 320 engine looks exactly like the E36 325 and 328 engine.
It is not a detuned 325 motor. It has different internal components than the 325.

BimmerMan how is the sale of your BMW going?
I remimber you or someone else asked what could they get for their car and numbers weren't pleasing at all considering the numbers invested.

Bladerunner
I am selling the car, but not to vigerously. The car is just posted here and on bimmerforums. I am considering putting it on ebay, and will also be putting it in the local paper here in a week or two. I am in the middle of mid-term exams right now. I have had people offer almost what I want, and to tell you the truth, if they put the money infront of me, I would take it. so, I will probably sell the car soon.
On that note, I will be looking for (most likely) a couple of e30s to replace my car. I need to turn my one car, into 2.

Oh and Mystikal, I forgot to say that I was referring to the E36 320 and not the E46.
