help! Searching for info for my father

First, thanks for taking the time to read this, and thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

My father is in the process of rebuilding an International TD5 with a BD144 engine. He has a rebuild kit for it, but no manual. Is there anything online, free would be best, of course! We've found them here and at other places for ~30USD, but we're in Nova Scotia Canada, and by the time you convert and add shipping (why does it cost $30 to ship a manual??) it's close to $100CDN!!! He's going to try it without one, but I said I'd try and search online for one for free or cheaper, really all he wants now is the torque values. He just came to borrow my torque wrenches...he plans to mark the bolt positions....break them loose, tighten to the same location and record the torque to get there! Any help would be appreciated. Thnks again!

All the BD144s are pretty much the same - except the early ones have in-line, air-governor BPE injection pumps, and later ones have rotary DPA CAV (Roosamaser clones) with centrifugal governors. Also, for some strange reason - most tapped bolt holes in the block are heli-coiled - not tapped directly into the cast-iron and they can be spun out if not careful. Also, many important bolts are not grade-marked, and some are drilled for wire-locking. Head-bolt torque - 75 ft. lbs. Rod-bolts - with drilled heads - 35 ft. lbs. Main bearing caps - two types use Type #1 - raised thread "Pitch bolts" 75 ft. lbs. Type #2 - Place bolts - shank and thread same diameter - 85 ft. lbs. Fuel injection static timing - 20 degrees BTDC Hot valve lash - intake and exhaust .020"

Thanks again!

Torque values are not model or make specific. They are rated for the bolt size and thread.

So, if he has any manuals laying around which give specs for the same bolt size and thread pitch, just use those figures.
