M42 ENGINE BUILDING INFO.

[razler]

Hi, can anyone point me in the right direction regarding M42 engine building information, torques, tolerances, guidelines, etc.. ??
I have a E36 Bentley manual but it has only brief info Cheers

Haynes is pretty good for torques. I've got an E36 one some where if I can find it I'll see if I can scan the pages for ya.

It's the E36 one which has the M42 info in it although for bottom end stuff the M40 stuff should be the same as the bottom end is the same????
