Planning an engine upgrade for my '78 530i

I have the rod but no support...

I don't suppose anyone reading this has 5-speed bits they would be willing to part with?

cheers,

the Swap is underway. I'll post some photos later.

I'm thinking about just leaving the AC off the car. Living in the Bay Area you hardly ever use AC and seeing as it just robs power and adds complexity I don't see the need.

Does anyone have any photos of the different brake boosters? I am operating under the assumption that the unit in my car is not the earlier one (that interferes with the intake manifold) but that said, I am just making an assumption.

cheers,
Brian
