E12 528 carb to motronic conversion
How you are going to solve electric issue. If you solved that you should be fine with the rest. Are you swapping the radiator as well. Also if your car is from 1976 brake booster sticks out could be a problem for intake manifold

Back to original brake booster
Your booster neck is shorter than the one I have in my 1975 530i. When I did the swap to M30B32 I had to keep the original manifolds.
I am very happy with B32 and 5 speed 265 getrag.

Getrag 260/5
This getrag will fit your car, but you won’t be able to connect speedo cable on it.

M30B28: bore to 89mm
If you are in Germany, that is understandable, that it is complicated to do the swap.
I did a complete swap since the car 733i had desirable gearbox. https://picasaweb.google.com/109864263698856795064/BMW530iM30B32?authkey=Gv1sRgCMCQzM3Fi4b4AQ #

If you are looking for newer 535xi be aware that the turbo engines have a lot of problems. 7 months ago I was about to buy one after I did extensive research I decided not to.

Motronic 1.3 with E12 intake
Are you putting a M30B34 or B35?
I swapped the original engine from M30B30 to M30B32 and it was easy.
Since my 530 is from 1975 I had to use original bores. There was not enough clearance from brake buster.
The donor engine came from 82 733i with the 5 speed 265 tranny. On 11/16/11, anthony ...

Do you know how long is the driveshaft to do the conversion?4 speed to 5 speed?
In centimeters if possible.
