i ran ~35 psi on stock head bolts, and a stock gasket.. 1.5D.. the trans end of the block finally failed, and cracked all to hell.

thats why he is going to put a 1.5 rotating assembly in a 1.6TD block.. (a 1.5TD with strong head bolts/studs)

Do not lower compression,trust me..
If i built some think like this,maybe i use 1.4 na or 1.3 na base engine.Both engine has several benefit against 1.6 or 1.9

You can run less compression without a problem, it will even start decent.

UnderPSI - as I was searching the forum on this topic, I saw your thread about the big valve heads, including a 1.9 head with very big valves.    Your Samurai looks bad-to-the-bone.  Extremely nice job on that truck.   Have you ever run a 1.9 head on a 1.5 displacement engine?

I haven't yet, was busy with other projects, ordered my head studs and a low pressure turbo today though.

Aki - that 1.3 Polo engine looks deadly.  It is a shame that we don't have those engines in the USA.  I have heard rumors of some people who have imported "Gray Market" VW diesel engines to the US from Europe, but there doesn't seem to be a good source for such services. 

I would be happy to give that engine a good home, and send it back when I am done, if you are interested in having your engine compete for a Land Speed Record.
