A small tip I've found when either working on a 7M or prepping it for machine work!
VERY IMPORTANT POINT don't over tighten the Cam Belt tensioner!!
36 ft/lbs is the spec and at that we measured half a thou deflection in #1 cylinder!!
I go to the extent of taking the tensioner and bolt along when the block is being bored with the torque plate to make sure the cylinders are round.
