Hi,

I'm going to be rebuilding the motor from a 2004 MSM. I'm trying to find the correct torque/clearance specs for the motor. I can't find anything specific to the MSM motor, but I've found torque specs for other years of the BP motor.

I've got some CP pistons and rings and I'll be following the piston ring gaps on the paperwork which came with those. Standard ACL Race main and rod bearings, Manley rods, BE oil pump, Fluidampr, sump baffle, standard crankshaft.

Are there any MSM-specifc torque specs I should be aware of?

Would any BP motor rebuild spec sheet be suitable? I've found some FSMs from here, but I don't know if they're wholly suitable: http://www.mellens.net/mazda/index.html

Cheers,

There is nothing special about the msm motor.

its basically a bp4w motor with a vcts intake.

standard bp4w (99-2000) specs apply.
