s50b30 in an e30 4 pot info wanted

[conor]

im seriously looking at putting an e36 3.0 m3 engine s50b30 into an e30
the e30 is originally a 4 cylinder

so obviously i need the
- engine
-engine loom ecu
-gearbox
-propshft
-radiator

but here are where my questions start

i dont need the key etc if i go alpha n right ?

will the manifolds work without modification ie. clear the steering rack

what do people do for mounts or do the match up

does the standard sump work- clear the subframe ?

do i need to uprate the fuel pump (i assume i do)

is there a wiring pinout done for this conversion

is there much wiring to this conversion if i use alpha n
just positive and negative and switched positive to the ecu or is there more ??

have looked around on the internet but havnt all i found were pictures of completed conversions really !

just trying to get an idea what involved in this conversion

i have its a hopless dead end of us m3 engines and threads that dont go into any details of the conversion only showing before and after pics

im shure there is a definitive how to thread but i just cant seem to find it

Give me a shout if you need any help or info on it. It's all very straight forward though.

The keys won't be needed for Alpha-N but if its a road car, I probably wouldn't go Alpha-N as they are quite lumpy on idle with it. The Evo engines are a good bit more refined when running on it.
