In the end, we're pretty happy with how it worked out. Parts availability is good, and the e39 flywheel provides an upgrade path to an OBDII 4.4L engine in the future (though, I'm very interested in the hybrid engine that Garey has come up with).

I do not want to increase the size of my MC since my brakes are pretty good as is.
Umm... why would you do this? Just use the parts from V8 E32 / E34, they are smaller and better in performance (you won't end up with "too powerful" brakes)..- E34 M5 (x 2) -

I've tried the e32 750Mc (25mm) and the pedal was way too stiff.
The V8 stuff is not that common here in Iceland and with our currency exchange rate with € or $ is not good :( But I was wondering why no one uses the oem booster+mc since its a good combo for my brake setup.

The problem is that the diameter on the original booster is not very good from V-engine point of view :)- E34 M5 (x 2) -
