Just an FYI since I see you already have the subframe and steering rack installed, but dropping the S54 in with the subframe installed is pretty much impossible. I just dropped my S54 into my 318is this weekend and learned a few things. The Arc Asylum oil pan is enlarged on the drivers side and it interferes with the subframe on that side. I ended up having to drop the subframe to get the engine positioned. Then bolt up the trans brace to get the engine at the correct angle while it was hanging from the engine hoist, then bolt the subframe back up with all the mounts loose to allow some slop. Once everything was aligned I snugged it all up. Now I understand why some people install the engine from the bottom. I'd still probably recommend installing from the top and bolting up the subframe though. Once I knew what to do it wasn't all that bad.
As for the brake booster, I'm not sure about that, but I'd be very interested to find out. I have a 2002 booster that I was planning to use, but I still need to modify it. If the e90 one can work that would be a great alternative though. What about the E60 master, would that work?
