macflint

MatFlint?

Matt's is not the usual 52 degree canted over/diesel kit style installation. Being a syncro, Matt's I think is mounted upright on the rear underrun protection bars - much cheaper I imagine than acquring all the diesel gear, but sacrificing rear engine cover height, unless its a Doka when it doesn't matter.
