N54 camshaft ledges torque specs please.

[spooling]

Hello,

Just received some maintenance parts for some issues I have been having-

Updated intake + exhaust camshaft housing
Updated camshaft ledge vanos seals
Latest fuel injectors + install kit .

My question, what are the torque specs of the camshaft housing bolts and sequence ?

Also need torque specs for camshaft timing gears.

Is any loctite used on any of these bols

Would really appreciate any replies....

Thank you Alex.

I have a toque spec sheet but it just does not seem right . For the camshaft ledges/ bearing strip = 8nm + 60degrees seems very loose....

[alex@ABRhouston]

no, that seems about right......

do you have the tools to align the bearing trays together?

I thought I had the tools but I only have the N52 timing kit.... bummer Im missing the bearing tray alignment cages and the tools to depress the rockers.

Any chance you have the tool kit and are willing to rent them out?

Let me know

[alex@ABRhouston]

Yes I have them.

Unsure about renting them.
REALLY unsure about renting them to a member with 4 posts.


As in, You'd have to give me the cost+ on the tool, and when it comes back in perfect shape you'd get a partial refund.

That would be amazing if you were ok to rent them to me. Im not a shop so the likely hood of having to do this job again is very unlikely. I was gonna buy the N54 camshaft timing kit tools on ebay but its 560$ to use once, I figured I would see if theres any good samaritans ( hint, hint ) that would rent the tools first.

I totally understand about the 4 post thing, I have spent much more time in the porsche forums, I could give you my ebay user name, same ebay user name since 2003 with 100% positive feed back.

Worst case, I buy the tools on ebay and my friend that has a shop with the N52 timing tools would buy the N54 tools off me after I was done, at a greatly discounted price obviously.....

Alex,

if you can, let me know what you decide, Koch tools is willing to sell the pieces I need to complete my n52 kit to be able to work on N54, I just wanted to follow up with you to see what you decided. If you dont want to rent out the tool, no problem.
