Default Looking for advice before buying an M50 swap

Year 1995
Drivetrain Miles: 184k
Engine: Non-Vanos M50
Diff: E30 2.9 to 1
Adjustable Koni Shocks
328 Front Brakes
ABS: Not working

Optional parts that can be included:
3.0l rotating assembly
Mtech Springs
Bilstein Front Struts

Price: 3k

Seems to me to be a great deal, I've read a lot of members state that the M50 isn't worth it in comparison to S50 swaps out there. But +60ish HP while retaining decent mpgs seems like a good Budget beater to commute to work.

Thoughts from the forum?

Also suggestions as to what parts I should take from the seller? I'm not in a place to have a garage full of parts. But the thought making a stroker with the 3.0 assembly is an enticing project down the road.
