I need one more heater hose in place before I fill the coolant and start my engine. What do people do to connect the bypass pipe to the heater core? I have the later 18mm heater inlets.

I'd have to look at my car with the tii pipe to confirm which hose I used, but that 320i pipe appears to end up near the same place (I'm thinking it was the tii hose, IIRC.)

BTW, in those pictures your car looks great!

But one thing I see is your inline plastic fuel filter looks like it's installed backwards. Check to see if there is a directional arrow on it.

Normal flow thru that type of folded paper element is from the outside to the inside, as that presents the greater surface area on the "dirty" side.

It is in backwards and not a surface issue, but rather the paper will burst. But before that because it is in the pump suction side, will give cause for vapor lock. Pulling gas below atmospheric pressure will cause it to boil. Filter should be under pressure.

a smaller angle (45° so) rather than the 90° of the 320 part. I can't seem to find a picture of a tii pipe and hose in a car, which would help immensely.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    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
