MOST flywheel bolts are TTY(torque to yeild). They strech and once taken out they cannot be reused. ---

just looked in another service manual for kicks. this is a bmw e28 one… covers '82-'88. says they are “stretch-type mounting bolts and must not be reused”. says to apply loctite 270 or equivalent. ---

I’ll be @ Hunts tomorrow morning assembling Jason’s JP motor. Should be there by 10 but I have to go grab an extra engine stand from my shop first. If I’m there ask and I’ll pop out into the lobby and say hello. ---

I perform engine machine work out of there for my business, and some odd-ball engine assembly for Dave on occasion. Years ago my uncle used to own the machine shop and the old crank/valve grinding equipment which he sold to Dave when Hunts opened. He(Mark) continued to work for Dave as a partner for many years, and still works there during retirement assembling motors for Dave. They’re all family to me and I’m at the machine quite often. Half a dozen or so members here have met me down there while I was working. ---
