Yap but you don't have to mess it up by much and you'll instantly be losing lots of horses...
I've a set but it's a bit long way to ship them :) Bought them from California for 100-150$ so shouldn't be too bad a investment..- E34 M5 (x 2) -

Frank, when I get my set back you can rent them for cost of shipping both ways. They are currently with someone elseMtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

One more comment.. there are M60's with two different timings "older" and "newer". The newer timing was changed to the engines by BMW after Alpina had timed their engine that way (makes idle smoother etc..)
What I'm trying to say, that when going around with the timings, use the newer timing values (where other side is slightly tilted, not perpendicular to heads).
I hope someone understood :)- E34 M5 (x 2) -

Jonsku, can you elaborate on where I can find the new timing values? Is there a writeuP as to how to time the m60?Recent Rebranding!!

The m/s5x's? They definitely aren't supposed to be perpendicular. Not under factory specs anyway.

So, when buying / borrowing the timing tools just make sure that the other side has tilted angle and you're ok.- E34 M5 (x 2) -
