Hi Everyone,

Would anybody have engine torque specs for early M30 engines? not sure if they would be different from the later models. the engine is a 1971 3.0cs
Cylinder head
main bearings
connecting rod bearings
large front crankshaft nut
Thanks,
Shaun

The Blue Book says: in ft/lbs
Cylinder head 1st/2nd/3rd, 32/47/52 (I go up to 60)
main bearings 42-45
con bearings 38-41
large front crankshaft nut with collared nuts 318-333
