Yes, a car may still run if the engine is blown but not if the damage is severe. ~If the engine has completely seized and key parts have melted due to extreme overheating, the car will not run.
The rotor continues to rotate, compressing the air-fuel mixture against the flat side of the rotor housing.

That depends on how much water you drove through and where your air intake is located. If you car’s air intake sits low in the vehicle, you’re likely in trouble because it could have sucked in some water, which means it could enter your engine. But if your air intake sits high, you might be alright.
A2: If your engine starts overheating, pull over to a safe location and turn off the vehicle. Let the engine cool down before attempting to diagnose the issue. Check coolant levels, radiator, and hoses for any leaks or blockages. If the problem persists, seek professional assistance.
While in the process of choosing and engine, I tried to pick one that looked good, but also learned about its history. I ended up looking specifically for 6 cylinders inline from BMW mainly because of the form factor (long enough and perfectly flat) but also because I like the brand, and because it’s an engine which performances were acclaimed all these years. The current generation (M54) is used in most powerful BMWs, and its sport version (S52/S54) powers the legendary M series. I ended getting really lucky on Craigslist, and found a pair of identical M52: it was produced at the end of the 90s, which is when BMW moved from cast iron blocks to aluminum, the latter being much lighter which is important, because an engine is heavy. Depending on how many parts are still in it (camshaft, pistons) it can be several hundred pounds. You will need a friend or two to help you carry it, and presumably a very sturdy dolly.
