i kept the standard a/c in the BA when we did the transplant, worked like charm, aslong as you retain the standard dump everything fits nicely, its only if you go for a custom dump pipe then you can run into some clearance issues depending on the size and angle of it obviously.
as for the engine, tough call. If they both were being rebuilt i'd definately go the BPD. But if you were putting them in as they are its a tough call. I am still kicking myself for not going with the BPD when i did my conversion, mainly because of the forged bottom end that the BPT does not have.
Another factor that would make my mind up would be the price diff between the two.
the BPD may put a fair bit of extra stress on the gearbox if its a stock gseries, 3 gear probably wont last too long.
tough call mate
