300 degrees will idle very badly, advise throttle bodies (x6) for anything over 288 duration.

need to know the valve lift too, you may need to machine the pistons to clear the valves @ full lift

seems a bit OTT spec wise for a 320 though dude........

the guy says the cilinderhead comes from a standard 325 underblock.
the underblock from a 320, 323 and 325i are the same? just the piston-cam (or how is it in english, the axle were the power of your pistons comes on)
are different from 323i

The stroke and bores are bigger thus giving bigger displacement.

The head will fit but it's not that worth it TBH but if you were to fit it to anything it's worth fitting it to a 2.7 with custom pistons with valve pockets. And have one awesome machine.
