Fun comments, folks.

Gosh, are you running it without flywheel and clutch? That doesn't sound real, especially with just that double barrel carb.

I know ... I wondered if I forgot a couple of pistons (chuckle). Flywheel is on there, but not clutch (a fairly lightweight unit).

The sweet thing about a downdraft setup, I think, is the long intake runners, which improve low/mid torque. There's a high top-end sacrifice (especially with the not-so-big cam) - but still, I like the way it drives.

More later. -KB

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
