What pistons are in it? Brand, comp ratio? Is this a PL block?
#1
Mostly stock 1.8L with all new seals and forged pistons, few new parts and again ALL NEW SEALS, i assembled this motor mostly by using a Bentley manual and the only problem i had with it was a timing issue.
I also am selling just about everything from the car, minus the body!

Volkswagen's are just buckets for all your money to go into with -100% ROI

To the best of my knowledge its just a PF engine with forged pistons in it, but i dont know the exact brand.
I bought it off a friend about a year ago and he had done about half the rebuild when he sold it to me, once i had it i finished the rebuild and put it in my car.
If i can get a hold of my old friend ill ask for info, but for now thats about all i know!

the few times we had it up and running it sounded like it was firing too early and then a few times like it was firing late...had an older mechanic friend help me out a couple times and we had it spot on once and after a little bit it was out of time again, may have just been the timing belt
i am pretty much broke and would much rather spend any little bit of money i have on getting and building up a VR6 than a 1.8

PM me a price for the longblock with all accessories(manifolds,p/s,a/c,alternator) if I come pick it up.
