Check with Kurt at the BMWMOA forum, seems there was a thread there awhile back. I tried to find it but couldn't, he may have better luck. Also Sno...
I have to add, I haven't seen this set up before, LOL, I guess nothing this new has come into my friend's shop so, I can see why there is an issue of ...
