Big end bearings

Definately, I would always recommend this. For the sake of an extra £600, it's really not worth the risk. Whether the customer agress or not is a different matter! I'm reluctant to say it's coincidence, it happens far too often for that. I'm afraid I cant tell you any more than that.

Bart's recommend bottom end rebuild after HG or cylinder head refurb.

If I am not wrong the rev limiter on the Z3 M is 7600 and not 8000.
