Header tank hose retaining clip

[30csl]

Anyone have a source for the metal clip that holds the header tank/expansion tank line over to the intake as seen in the pic of this bat's engine bay? Looks like it attached to cylinder 2's intake runner.

It looks non standard to me.

On cars with power steering this hose is kept by a bracket mounted from the resevoir. I guess this Batmobile must have a manual steering box, as i can't see a resevoir, so assume it's an aftermarket solution

do you have a pic for the power steering bracket line

You can see a similar bracket on the Rahal car here http://www.bimmer-mag.com/issues/112/articles/a-batmobile-for-bobby?page=3#.WZqs1_4zW71

It's standard I believe.

View attachment 29799 It's standard I believe.

I think you may be correct. Early press photos of the e9 do show a clamp on the inlet manifold rather than the one on the power steering reservoir. After some research I suggest the part number is 13 31 1 256 511

I believe the PS reservoir one is for the battery cable.

I think you will find the clip for the battery Pos cable is attached to the oil dipstick holder. It is on mine anyway!

The Rahal coupe has many errors, check out pic #2 with the modern paint sticker. Rahal was so displeased he sold it after only a short ownership.

I am sure it would be far better than the original too Jesus! I am going to have a go myself first but thanks.
