well if the engine comes out of a car thats mounted longditudinaly, the sump and pickup is differant as it sits at a differant angle.

the dizzy i now about cheers guys

dubslug_ do u have a big valve head .wot gains will i get from this. been to c my mate tonite hes s**t hot with engines

hes guna use my other head and open it up also my manifolds port n polish the lot. hes a great friend (painted my red golf for nothing) ov course i saw him right

he was asking if its worth big valving the head. dont wana spend a fortune doin this for little hp gains

just reconning my other box get my other head done new 2lt block will be already to put in when done.

also putting in a cam (fast road) is this a good option and a chip.

if i missed anything i should know any mods etc will be very welcome

thanks guys .you all feel like brothers :wink:

Post by: fused on 08 January 2008, 19:31: I had my short block balanced; crank, fly and con-rods. Made a lot of difference, rev's smoothly and idles lovely and if you are putting in a fast cam the power band will probably be higher so you will be spending more time at higher RPM's! a worth while upgrade for these older engines!

Post by: golf mk2 tornado red on 08 January 2008, 19:42: so a good option then cam wise cheers
how much did it cost you to get it balanced a rough price is expected as with different specialists ect

Post by: golf mk2 tornado red on 08 January 2008, 20:09: wooh won the block. Ã‚£90 with 10k wear sorted it will soon all come together.

Post by: rubjonny on 09 January 2008, 12:55: i think the abk dizzy will be fine, if you look at the block it aint got a crank sensor so the dizzy must be the right one for a digifant MK2 :)

edit: ABK block is Audi version of the 2e ;)

Post by: dubslug on 09 January 2008, 21:10: yet again jon puts me right, just when im thinking im getting somewhere....
yeah i have a bvh...not been able to open it up yet as its not been in long....
but i was told that a bvh will help it rev better and breath better at higher revs
