We lost the timing chain guide on our e39 540 so it was time to replace the guides and timing chain. If you bought a torque multiplier, there are junk blocks that won't give you the actual torque ratio. I've been watching this for a while and had to take the plunge and I'm glad I did. Torque on the crank bolt is between 1000 and 1200 lb-ft when using a BMW approved crank holding tool and this multiplier. the wind pulls out the bolt. Tightening the bolt only requires about 85 lb-ft of torque on the input side of the multiplier, which should be 300 on the output side, which is the torque specification for the bolt. This torque multiplier represents the lifesaver. It will come in handy when it comes time to make a timing chain for my fleet of e34 and e39 cars.
