    Coolant hose

    Anybody have a s52/m52 swap that is running a m20 rad and late model resivoir tank? I am trying to figure out what hose to use from the tank to the metal coolant pipe under the intake. I'm thinking that I could use #8 (11531740649) http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...89&hg=11&fg=35. Any help is appreciated.

    And yes I have searched but came up with nothing solid. Thanks again.

    I'm using the E34 rad hoses.

      I always swipe a section of the m20 hose.

          Thanks, I cut mine to short when I did, and it seems to be a tad bit small to fit over the metal pipe. Was just wondering if anybody did it different.
