along with the manifolds and linkage. Prefer Weber 40s or 45s, but would consider Dell Ortos or Solexes, too.
TIA

Remember that you have to use the manifolds from the BMW 1800TI 4 door if you are running the 1600cc motor since the ports on the 1600 are smaller than those of the 2002. The 1800TI used essentially the same head as the 1600-2. There were some differences between the 2 heads but they are interchangable. Both had the same size ports and valves.

Good Luck,

Slavs


The port sizes for the 1602 are smaller and a 1800 would match but in a pinch you can match grind the 1602 head to fit the 2002 intake manifold. Not much gasket purchase area left but it will work.
