Decent m30 lumps are going up in price now, as are the pretty rare manual gearboxes. They still crop up on ebay at varying prices although there's no guarantee they are any good as they are old engines now!
This list is pretty much everything you need: http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... ic&t=98093
The m30 section is pretty quiet these days, but put any questions you've got up in there and we'll answer them

We M30 boys still post in there now and then 
Not sure if you will be doing the conversion yourself but there's plenty of helpful people on the zone if you did need advice etc!
I have a thread in the M30 section:

and the thread in my sig is my project thread of my E30's

For a full conversion I would budget about £800
