    Help Dr.Gonzo acquire the parts needed for the swap.

    So I have been doing my research and I am starting to get a idea of the parts I need. Here is what I have so far
    Complete M50 Longblock Preff from a 525 because of the oil pan
    E28 Motor mounts
    M50 Ecu
    Brake Booster (not sure which one or the cheapest way to do it)
    Electric fans (I will also be getting a new radiator as well as the Tbelt Water pump Etc).
    What else is needed for the swap? I know driveshafts have to be swapped but not completely sure. I am already a member on e3024v so I will be looking around there as well.

    You are going to have to try harder than that. This has all been covered hundreds of times. Use the search button and/or the stickys at the top of the page they will answer all those questions.

        On a similar note, anyone know the difference between 402 and 403 ECU's other than model year? I think 402 is brown label, 403 green. Can they be swapped?

          Ahh thank you for some of the links. I had found a couple others that were more oriented to buildup threads, This has been very helpful. This is what I have figured so far.
          I can use the stock 260 transmission and driveshaft
          I have to have the stock transmission crossmember modified by someone on here.
          I can use a 325ix brake booster.
          How is this for a start?

              So i found there is a member on here who does the custom tranny mounts, I am still a bit confused on the motor mounts, I don't need to touch the driveshaft if i use the stock 260. On track so far?

                I have e36 motor arms for sale which you will need unless you get the motor from an e36. I also have the a/c comp and p/s pump if you want.
