Some notes, he got it for a project, had it running for hours, decided he wanted a different engine, 1.9Mtdi, bought it and is now selling this. He is a VW nerd by his FB profile so that's good.
He's not thrilled with over 1 hour for compression and leakdown.
Stock, original motor puts out up to 139 hp. No idea on cam but with webers and headers, might get up to 150. Yes? No?
A Turbo 1.8/2.0 would be sweet but it's a major project. This is a weekend with a little luck and not going too crazy cerakoting everything from the radiator back and then I might do a cadmium run. So 2 weekends for all new under the hood.
Good advice on valve cover and pan removal.
This weekend seeing it and him may mark the go/no go.
