I am rebuilding my friends S50b30 to go into his e30 325i sport , and I am looking for a chart with the bearing sizes that correspond with the different colours , The orginal bearings were only a little worn and the crank was just repolished so still just under 60mm
the problem is the colour marks on the block are very faint and unreadable and I cant find any on the crank ? when I took it apart , I found a bit of green paint on the first main bearing shell but none on any of the rest . also in Tis it says to ignore the paint class on the block and only fit yellows in the block, It seems a bit strange fit odd shells . So hope there is a Master tech on here who can help!
