I have a 74 2 Liter with a tired [but good] original FI and the compression is down a bit on at least 2 of the 4. I am surprised at how well it runs even with the various leaks.
I am planning to do my very first rebuild [not complete mind you] and want to start out replacing the pistons w/Mahle flat tops, new push rod tubes and seals, rebuilt heads w/all new valves, springs, etc. I am sending out the heads locally but will supply the parts. In addition I am going to renew the seals and gaskets on the tranny and go thru the FI systems seals, etc. Last but not least I have a pair of like new SS Heat Exchangers from a 1.7 and plan to convert from the 2.0 since they are getting ragged. Is this a lame approach??? |

On a sort of side note, it would be nice if we could get flat top or domed KBs. The valve releif isn't necessary and reduces your combustion ratio.
