    Swap in progress - remote reservoir help

    The engine is in but I need to finish plumbing the coolant hoses, vacuum hoses, coolant lines and put the trans back up. I hope to finish tomorrow with a little help on the remote reservior. I have the pipes below but they seems to be too small to make a tight seal to the e32 master / ix booster. What am I doing wrong???







    A few pictures of the progress...







    Thanks for the help on the reservoir.

    wow that's a tight squeeze. I just got done reading through the HUGE DOHC thread never pictured it being that tight of a squeeze. Sorry I can't help. I actually just moved to the atlanta area I'd love to check it out sometime. I'm replacing my friends S52 hydrolocked motor this coming weekend so that will be going into my E30 once I rebuild it hopefully this fall.

        I won't get it finished this weekend so I'll be working on it next weekend. You're more than welcome to come check it out. I'm in Sandy Springs.

        Dominic, thanks for the part number info. I looked it up. Do you need the flat washer too? I'll get those this week. You and I actually met a while ago if I remember correctly at the Bimmerforums weekly meet at that gyro place.
