New to the type 4 and 914 world, Noticed that Empi has two cylinder heads available for the type four. has anyone used them yet? If so, how do they compare against the heads that are available? Cooling? Flowing? Quality? Are the Empi heads worth buying compared to what's out there now? In the type 1 world, Cima/Mahle cylinders seem to be what to use with good success. Are Cima/Mahle cylinders available for the type 4? If so, from whom or where? And while I consider Empi heads and Mahle cylinders, what about new type four cases? Are there new type four cases available? Or soon to be available? I know with the VW type 1 new cases solve many problems. Thank you for the time and information, Steve V,

The EMPI heads are available with larger valves? What about porting? How is the quality? Now for cyinders, no source in US for, Cima/Mahle, then what is the next best option before going with, Nikasil? In the type 1 world, Cima/Mahle cylinders are available all over.
