Hi help needed..
Does anyone know whether i can bolt an e32/e34 head to a e28 3.5 block??
Trying to avoid the water hose problem on the e28 head.

Im sure you can just blank the hose off with a plate and use E34 hose/thermostat set up.
Im sure that elbow on the back of the head goes to the heater matrix.

Would it make a differance blocking the e28 rear feed or jus using an e34 head??
Iv been told blocking the e28 rear feed it is more prone to over heat due to not having a direct coolant feed??
My plan was jus to bolt my e34 head thats been pressure tested and painted to and e28 block..
