ordered a 20vt mls head gasket and head bolts. i can pick them up friday. I have a disassembled i5 20v head from my v8 coupe and have access to a complete stock longblock
looks like this may be a no go for Euro Hanger...but who knows
ill have the head pulled by tonight....too bad the previous owner didn't time the motor correctly...but if he i did...he would have converted it to an s2 by now....Comment

Well that there is the problem.
its cool, picked up a stock long block for $50Last edited by dspl1236; 06-27-2013, 08:37 AM.Comment

the locals are trying to get me to 1.8t this....
i want to keep an inline five...but i am open to ideas
163hp stock - I have a 170k mi unopened long block that hasn't run in 2-3yrs
180hp stock - i would love to use a new vw 2.5 20v i5 motor, but it was it mounting challenges plus new harness/ecu....
170-190hp? stock - if i use an older eurovan 2,5 10v block..its like 8:1 with a 20v head and thus would need to get decked a bit to bring up the compression.
150hp stock - i have a 2001 a4 1.8t bottom end that needs honed and pistons replaced. i have a large port aeb head that was given to me yesterday that was on my old jetta(like 4-5 cars ago)...but would need a a4/passat engine harness...have a stock ecu from my old a4
big boost can/will be obtained on all setups aboveComment

plans are to swap in a stock motor and swap the v8cq coilovers onto this one so i can just go out an cruise it.Comment

Glad to see this thing is still alive and going (well about to be anyway).
Did you swap the coils over yet? Does it crank/turn over?

battery crapped out soon as i went to start it. ha
coils are not on just yet, want to see it run drive before i did that. also had a few offers to buy it sight unseen...(could then finish the v8 coupe) so not sure what my plans are.kinda just going with the flow of thingsComment
found the problem ...
