On the lobes? Yes, assembly lube

[Elysian]

Those cams look a bit cracked?

Had mismatched parts, the jaguar intercoolers wouldn't fit the lower manifolds. I figure the intercoolers were from a 4.2L XKR. Sourced a set of earlier intercoolers from XJ8 and fit like they should.









Now to clean them up and paint the intercoolers. I'm going for metalcast red intercoolers with silver "Supercharged" lettering, silver outlet duct with red "V8",

Things left To-Do:

Timing covers (waiting on hardware)
Degree in cam timing (waiting on timing covers)
Install lower oil pan (waiting for rest of engine in case hardware drops)
Source M60B40 valve covers, paint them black
Make intake manifold gaskets for jaguar parts
Flip supercharger pulley to line up to BMW pulleys
Cut off rear supercharger mount provision and modify for adapter mounts
Block off unused ports on Jag parts
Get BMW alt and starter
Measure and source drive belt
Order or make 4 bolt exhaust flanges to adapt S65 exhaust manifolds to M60 heads.
Make wiring harness, wire up to standalone EFI

you sir are a mad man... I like it.

Locking in the cam phasing and cam gears, does this look correct to you guys:

With cyl #1 @ TDC, installed cams with lettering facing out and locked in place with cam blocks. I've set up the cam gears to be in the middle of adjustment slot, The main cam drive gear has the arrow pointing up following spark plug angle.









Cam lobes of cyl #1 TDC of compression stroke:



Cam lobes of cyl#6, TDC of exhaust stroke (cyl#1's paired cylinder)



The timing chain fits right set up like this and with timing blocks in place I've maintained the middle of the adjustment slot mounting for the gears.

(I know I need to clock those cam gears before assembly)

M60B40 cylinder heads back from the machine shop. I've now got everything needed to assemble the engine. Super stoked.

You flip the supercharger pulley around it lines up with the M60 crank pulley. So you use a longer 7 rib belt to get to s/c

[dougie30]

i may have missed it, but what will you be doing for the supercharger belt drive? crank pulley adapter of some sort id assume?

B40 heads & cams on M62 with M60 double roller timing set up.

So the compression ratio is slightly lower then a “stock” m62b44?

Are you using the m60 camshaft then too? I’ve read in several places they have a higher lift then the m62 did. I’m curious if it’s possible to put the m60 chain set up in an m62 just for the sake of having a more reliable set up. Also if it would be better to use the stock m62 block and heads but install the m60 camshafts.
