One for all the oily fingered among us.
When rebuilding an m20 is it advisable to replace the conrod bolts?
This months T BMW suggests that the conrod bolts on the m10 should
be replaced during a rebuild is this true for the m20?
Whats the view, has anyone put the original bolts in and tracked a 325 and
not blown the engine?

If they are stretch bolts which I think they are then you should replace them.
