Default The perfect swap candidate

I just picked up a swap candidate for my Ti. Drove 3 hours down to look at a 1996 BMW 328i 4 door 5 speed. The guy on Craigslist said it only had cosmetic issues (very obvious fire damage I attribute to a sub installation without an inline fuse). Took it for a spin and the clutch would slip with anything more than 1/4 throttle. Ended up talking the guy down to $600. Motor runs surprisingly well for 225k miles, but I'm planning on refreshing it when it's out of the car. Rest is going to be parted out (anyone want anything ). For those who are informed about the m50/ m52 is there anything I should just go ahead and do while it's out of the car? Planning on new clutch and flywheel, ccv delete, CDV delete, SAP delete, and replace most of the gaskets.
