but it almost looked like that block had siamese cylinders. and siamese cylinders are gay.. my dad had a 400 chev once and the cylinder wall between 2 cyl's melted. idk how he did it, but you could see through one cyl right into the other one.
PD 105, PD 130, PD 150 and PD 160 are 8V.PD 140 and PD 170 are 16V.For a 16V IDI, Aki-76 tried using a KR (1.8 16V) head, but suitable pistons and rods couldn't be found. Now he's bulding a 20V M-TDI, using 1.8 T 20V head and an SDI block :twisted:

Such a pity the 1.8 20VT engines are expensive I'd be looking at £3k for a decent engine, that's about $5k US
