Hey Ciny! Hope all is going well on your motor build. Had a question for ya. I decided to do a full motor build on another motor instead of adding a little extra mod here and there to my 3+ set-up that is currently in my car. Then I can just swap motors when I'm good and ready! I read somewhere that you wrote about a better head for the TTout a passat or an A4? can you please tell me what head that was and the benefit of it. Thanksforyour helpCincy!!!

 

Since this is a page for cincy I'll help you get a response quicker:

Don't worry though, they are all just as useless as what I post here.

 

AEB head from an A4 or Passat same year range...2001-2003 i think

 

You will also need a big port manifold to go with it. If you dont have the funds for that, you will need a intake manifold spacer from 034motorsports for a small port to large port.

You might want to do rods first since the head would increase the power enough to where you may snap a rod rather easily

 

thanks lol^^^

 

Thanks! I am planning on doing it all: Rods, stroker crank, Intake Manifold, Methanol, and a new worked head.

 

SOunds good. YOu can source your own kit or get a kit from qedpower.

Actually Ed make 675whp on both stock head bolts and gasket. Many people swap to head studs to prevent head lift with higher hp cars. Also studs are stronger and reusable
