That's a good point.
There would be no oil supply to the hydraulic lifters.
Would you have to change to solid lifters and the valves
with the longer valve stems?
Just curious.
If you plug the extra oil return plugged with an aluminum plug and then get the head surfaced it will work fine with a solid lifter headgasket. Upgrade the oil pump to 36mm gears.
The solid lifter head on the hydro block is harder to manage IMO.

The only problem I have is the head I have is a hydro and the turbo block I found is not.
That combination won't work unfortunately.
That's exactly what I was getting at Tyler. Non hydro head on a hydro block is fine but the otherway isnt feasable.

What am I, the freakin' invisible man??? :lol: :lol:
The hydro head on the solid lifter block will work fine as I outlined above.
Andrew
WOW!!!!
Sorry dude.
The hydro head will really work on the solid lifer block just by pluging the return in the block and using the solid lifet gasket??
Ok, I'll take a look at it tomorrow. I have a hydro head and a solid block sitting here.

Back to "91 TD Part Out"
This poor guy is trying to sell his parts.
Car parts, that is.
Side conversations don't bother me, I learnt something from it all so that's a plus. Everyone knows I'm still selling parts. Thanks for looking out though
hey, just wondering if you have the turbo inlet tube that goes between the turbo and air filter, i need one for my buds 1.9TDi, he blew the turbo (snapped the shaft) so we put a T3 in it. let me know...
henry
I can't even count how many of those things I have. $20 shipped. I'll IM you as well
They are all for 1.6s though so I don't know if they will work
to the top. I cleaned up my garage 2 days ago, I have like 5 spare air boxes and a ridiculous amount of mk2 timing belt covers (upper, lower, backing)
