Yes, that is Andy2's car. He used to post here. He's on tdiclub more now. The car has an ALH block with a custom steel head, extensive reinforcing and a high flow injection pump built from a truck p-pump I believe.

I'd love to see updates! My 2 biggest questions... where/how did you get that head and what have you done to the bottom end?  ;D

enough boost is when you have 3 dimple marks in the hood from the valve cover nuts..  ;D

The head is custom built. Meaning its a one off steel head that was cast for him. $$$!

We cast our own cylinder head and it holds up well with the stock head gasket.The bottom end is heavily reinforced.There is a picture in the first thread that shows the steel oil pan.
