Nice! Now you can do my timing chain tensioners for me! :p Did you here the "marbles in my motor" sound at all or just open it up to find broken tensioners?

What did you have done to your head at the machine shop?

the freeking thing sounded like a diesel!

Heres what the paper said from the machine shop..

- Vacuum check for head cracks
- Resurface cylinder head
- Valve Job

Have you heard of that copper head gasket spray? I might put some on the metal mk4 hg for mine. I hear it creates a way better seal.

Mmmmmm Torque coverter. Glad to see that go. Probably running a little low on torque anyway.
