For the battery in boot. Heard people saying that if you run a long wire its at risk of spike's and all that jazz. Putting a 75 amp circuit breaker next to the battery is a goos idea? Or is it just being over cautious ?

Looking at realoem for this spigot bearing you guys speak of
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do ... g=11&fg=20
Is it number 1 of this pic ? Do i need the 320/6 one or 325i one, or are they both the same anyway?
Gave the engine a bit of a clean up while i was bored at work today
Got my front pipes delivered so can use my stock exhaust for now. Took the log manifold off but discovered a snapped stud. Will get the easy outs on the case.
