Thanks. I got the gaskets(oil cooler, filter housing, main seal) and all the aluminum blue top screws/bolts from dealer. Also doing CCV overhaul while I am at it. Was also planning to change the starter but the 325 has already a new starter so will be reusing that.
The engine and transmission are both out from the 325. Took me 1.5 hours to remove exhaust, driveshaft and transmision. And about 3 hours for the engine. It was really easy since the car had no front bumper, headlights and other crap lol. But it is going to be pain on the E60 since i have to reuse all the wiring and other components. Again, Thanks a lot of any of the help that has been contributed.
