Hi chaps i bought a e30 cabby while ago it already had m50 (325i) conversion done. I Got it running over the weekend, the car does not give any hot heat from the heaters ,we checked where the pipework normally goes into the bulkhead for the heater matrix and nothing has been attached? it seems like there is no space to put the top pipe on as its pretty much nearly touching the engine? He has bridged the pipework so the water stays running with in the cooling system. Can anyone advise on this or how should it be set up on a m50?
thanks
thanks

On mine, I have the angled pipe from the bulkhead rotated 180 degrees. There's a small locating peg that stops it being fitted incorrectly, so that has to be removed.

Hardly needs pics. Unbolt the pipe at the flange, cut away the little indexing pin that's supposed to stop you fitting it the wrong way up, refit.
