I need to get a few headbolt washers to finish bolting the heads back on my t4 short block.
Some idiot used several of the head bolt washers as spacers when the short block was mounted on the engine stand. I'd like to kick that guy right now.

Any way, I'm going to head to True Value and get some M10 washers. Are the VW washers special in some way?

You should be fine. The case through bolt washers are special, so I can identify those easily. The head washers don't have any obvious identifying features.

The washers I am talking about are the studs that go from the case through the cylinders and into the heads. Just want to be sure that I am not talking about the case through bolt washers that you are saying are special.

The hardware store was closed on Sundays. So Ihave to wait till tomorrow to try and find them, or just deal with dropping the engine off the stand to recover the washers I need.
