If you're into this, you'll love M539 restorations. Here's a ground up rebuild of the S65 V8 out of an E92 M3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfuXp8QnWoU&t=2s

I own this car and the engine. I did extensive engine repairs and maintenance (rod bearings, valve cover seals, throttle actuators, SAP, plugs, coils, sensors).

This is insanely expensive amount of parts in this video, not even counting the work itself. Basically it would never make economic sense to do a rebuild like this.

He buys cars in sketchy condition for very cheap. For example, this car was:

- Crashed in the US - Auctioned to a European dealership who replaced the odometer - Sold to two more owners, the latter who seized the engine

He's traveling around central Europe to tow cars from people who would otherwise scrap them.
