okay, me and Andrey did a dry-run of the m5 engine installation. It went well, pretty easy actually :)

To dispell any myths about needing to change the oil pan and pump to an older CS/Bav one or, modifying the front subframe; it doesn't have to be done! the s38 motor fits right into the subframe using the old e9 engine mounts without any clearance problems.

Next on the list::::: remove engine, fit an e23 hydro brake setup to the car. As a tii booster wont even fit!

Check out the pics!

Thanks for the help Andrey!
