You had me really thinking tho as it's not easy to find that information. All my instructions seem to omit that. Tin assembly is almost an art as nothing ever fits and bending and tweaking is the only way it seems. |

I've had absolutely no trouble at all fitting original German tin. Fits like a glove. |

Yea. We went from all chromie stuff to painted black cromie stuff/replaced some parts with EMPI parts.
Also do have 1 piece original tin! Its the breast plate piece that fits behind the crankshaft flywheel.
So 3 different brands later, we are making it work somehow! |
