Main/Conrod bearing cap torques
Discussion
I wonder could anyone tell me if the torque settings for a 1995 3.9 engine are the same as below, particularly the main and conrod bearing caps.
Thanks in advance.

The wear is possibly due to the fact our cars are only used now and again, it’s the only explanation I can think of.
I’m thinking about using a higher quality oil when it’s all done changed once a year, something like this.

Cam looks to have done really well as there was definetly no history of it being changed and only 2 owners before Me. Surprised at the big ends but at least you've caught it in time.
I thought you were going the 4.5 route Now?

Decided against the 4.5 route as i could not justify spending the money. I have had the heads done to stage 3, improved the induction and will fit a new MC1 cam.I thought you were going the 4.5 route Now?

This is the reason why I always advise potential boosters to strip and check the engine before fitting their supercharger or turbo. I’m thinking about using a higher quality oil when it’s all done changed once a year, something like this.

Yes id agree, I almost went for the SC kit and was going to just bolt it on after compression tests were confirmed good.
I'd been thinking along the same lines when the turbo kits started to appear.Does it have pocketed pistons? I always meant to chuck endoscope camera down when changing the plugs just to see.
