Swap is pretty straightforward. The E30 requires the oil pan/pickup modification, which might not be needed on an e24. Hass/Bimmerlabs can do a full ews delete on the DME so you can run it standalanone. Then its just a matter of hooking everything up. For gauges, the tach output should be compatible with the stock e24 tach. Temp gauge and oil pressure light are easy. Now the N52 does not have a dipstick, and uses an electronic sensor. This is a bit more complicated to get something to work off the sensor. I think the better solution is to fab the pan to allow a dipstick. Never liked the electronic sensor anyway.
