Best of luck with your build,see you found the crank spacer drawing 
,I considered building a 2.8 for the current project touring but was talked into an M50 at a zone meet...similar power but better economy for less money was the clincher,now I am fighting a reluctant downpipe perhaps I made the wrong choice!!

im hoping to have it done and in the car christmas week well im hoping anyway all depends on time and money but i had a good start today been and bought a complete m52b28 bottom end for £50 only problem with it was the threads in the block had been stripped just glad i dont need that bit anyway.
