1984 318i conversion

[eangelmn]

I have a 1984 318i that I am converting to a carb. I am rewiring the whole vehicle and taking out the fuel injection. I rebuilt the engine and put in a Schrick 292 cam for an older M10 engine and will be using distributor from a 1977 320i and will eventually install dual 40 carbs. The thing is, right now, I only have a manifold from a 1976 2002 with a Holley/Weber 32/36 mounted on it. There are three water inlet/outlet ports on it and I have no idea what hoses I need or where they hook up to. Could you guys at Pelican or anybody for that matter give me directions on how to hook up the manifold cooling and a list of parts I would need to accomplish this. Thanks.

That's not manifold cooling.... it's manifold HEATING for driveability on cold starts and cold days. For a performance appliction I would eliminate all water to the intake.

You might want to look in this website for your mod. I was going to the same to my car the same year as yours but my new toy is taking a lot of my time, 1991 318is.
