I bought the correct machined "elbow" from Downing Atlanta and a couple brackets. Lucky for me, they have a few odds and ends leftover from the kits they used to produce. The items weren't cheap, but should make for a clean installation on the Z3 rather than using a 2X4 as a makeshift bracket. I'm taking this DASC swap project slowly. I still need a few odds and ends. This project went on hold for a while (as I juggle work and home projects). You have inspired me to work in this project again. Thanks. P.S. If there are any Z3 fans, I found a clean 1.9 M44 for the DASC that had been converted to "widebody/6-cylinder" rear fenders, "M" seats/mirrors/center multi-gauge console, plus I located a factory hard top. My ti is essentially done, but I always have the urge to "build" or tinker with older BMWs. Know the feeling?
