yes now that i thought about it your right! i do remember and they may be hard to find because of such a short time being made from the factory!

The motor in my '91 Jetta is an MF code solid lifter block. And, yes, they do have 12mm head bolts (or studs if you go that route).

I see you guys don't live close to me and don't have a block for sale.

Thats what I'm looking for. Any help? Any leads?

Thanks Fatmobile..... Shipping is a killer.

But if I can't find one I might need yours. How much are you asking?

Please don't hijack my post. I am looking for a block. If you don't have one don't leave a message on this post. PM each other if you what to talk about head bolt size or MF code engines.

Thanks.... I'm a little frustrated because the vendor (Parts Place)who said three weeks to put together a short block is going on six, and I need this car running.

Do you just need a block or do you need a shortblock?

blocks are light and cheap to ship through fedex ground.

Just letting you know.

FYI - fatmobile might part it out.

I'd possibly interested in the other stuff if you wanted to go in on it...

I have a block at the machinist getting ready to be bored for 1.7 pistons,... they told me it is cracked so it looks like I'll be needing this block.
