I could be wrong.

its a 117E55. nothing to do with an E class.

booster relocation is solid, straight shot and poses no problems. the setup is from a 1994 540i and is designed to run remotely with a long rod from the pedal.

I have D-Jet rails, decided not to use them for many reasons.

I have a BMW TPS on my throttle body, wasn't an issue.



getting back to my questions, the whole reason I started this thread -- I need to know the diameter and pitch for the AT cooler lines and the rear port on the manifold originally tapped for the brake booster vacuum line.

so far as I can tell the AT lines at M16x1.5 and the booster one is M14x2.
