Hi Guys

Ive reached the final stages of the conversion and this entails setting up the motor. winkeye Im using a 325i block, head and pistons, and an eta crank and eta conrods for a 2.7 build.

I require the ffg torque settings for this motor:

1. Head Bolt Torque settings ( std bolts )

2. Crankshaft main journal bolt torque settings.

3. Conrod big end bearing cap settings.

4. Flywheel bolt torque settings.

5. Sump bolt torque settings.

Thanks in advance.
