Royce Manual Help Please

[genphreak]

I can't find my Royce manual, have turned the house and office inside out trying to locate it. Any chance anyone would be so kind as to scan or fax the M50 headgasket repair section?
I know this is a big request, but short of buying another manual and waiting, you all are my only hope.
Please consider it.
email scan to pmcdougal755 at comcast dot net
thanks in advance...

WTF is a Royce manual? You can find the Bently and Haynes (god forbid the Haynes) manuals online.... or even better BMW's own online Technical Information System as a bunch of huge PDFs. Search this forum, thre were some links posted a few days ago.

What's a Royce manual? Same as a Bentley, different cover, 20% more expensive?
Dunno. Old age I guess or owning 6 cars or...
No wonder I can't find it. I know it's got a gold cover and lots of greasy pages.

Thanks for the wtf, the suggestions and the link...

That M50 manual on the bmw tech info site shows nothing for head R&R and I don't see where the referred to "assembly repair manual" is on that site. Any further help would be appreciated.

listen, old top, the most popular manual for the e34 is called the ferrari manual, published by robert ferrari publishers. the front cover has a picture of a big ass cow on it, like the ferrari emblem.

I'm just wondering what an 'old top' is

I don't know if you all on that side of the pond got an animated show called "king of the hill" written by the same people that did beavis and butthead. Buck Strickland occasionally calls Hank Hill "old top" to imply that he's barking up the wrong tree/worrying excessively &c. I'm not sure what exactly it means.

I just thought it was synonymous with "old fart"...
Thanks for the links and the help.
Very much...

Used to enjoy King of the Hill but never knew anybody else that watched it. Perhaps why I havent seen it for a while. Shame

That is a shame, that's some of the best TV in existence.

Hey, what have folks done for sourcing the tools? Looks like at minimum I need the cam holder, the chain tensioning tool and the Torx head bolt tool. (Ever since I was a devoted BavAuto client and learned of AutohausAZ and BMA, I always ask...)
On a medium/high mileage engine like mine, what should the job include other than R&R with a HG set and new H bolts? Guessing resurfacing, valve job, guides, etc? Anybody had success with the pelican method of cam removal?
