Could sell you a complete engine that I broke a timing belt on last year, had about 420 pounds of compression until I broke the belt. I'm a long way away though. It's about 3 1/2 hours to buffalo NY. Engine has a sticker on the side that says it was a VW rebuild, so who knows if it's been bored already. Make me an offer and come and help pull it out of a '92 Jetta...........
Got another one in the trailer already out, head off. Head is probably beyond using, but it ran when pulled. Engine had over 500,000 km and less than 275 lbs on all cylinders, guess why it got pulled! Definetly needs to be bored.
Got a third one that was bored and ran great, but had a precup come loose and destroyed one hole..........
Good. Hate to see someone stuck for parts!
The Short block I got from Bryn is in very good shape. It had 2 over pistons and a stock crank with standard bearings. I was going to hone it up and re-ring, replace the bearings. But with the luck I have been having I sent the block, pistons and crank to the machine shop to be checked out.
