Sooo, when I send my case off to Rimco.

I tell them I want it Cleaned, Inspected, and then assuming everything is good... galley plugs drilled and tapped???

Everybody says Rimco is good to deal with right???

I am trying to do everything right the first time.


Thanks

NO!
Send your case to Mark at Warrior Motors in Red Lion. NO NEED to ship it to CA.

Tell mark what you want done, and make sure to have him check the cylinder registers.

Minor Setback. I was pulling out my stash of parts and found this on my brand new 96mm AA jug. 3 are fine and one is missing a coulple of fins (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I assume this is not O.K. to use ??? So now i can bore out 1 of the stockers, or hell... bore out all four of the original jugs???


Please Help me.

I am putting the KB pistons inside these. Such a waste if I cannot use this new set I purchased 2 years ago. It was just sitting in the box and I never checked them

It's toast, and the AA's are a crap shoot anyway. My inclination would be to bore out the stockers, and have the AA's checked. If they are a good batch you have 3 decent ones you could sell if anyone needed one or 2

You can buy just 1 jug from AA.The stock jugs are a higher quality steel and come highly recommended for boring out for 96mm pistons.

Yep, bore the stock ones. They are better then the AA jugs. Sell the AA jugs off.

Dropped the case off with Mark @ Warrior yesterday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Very nice guy ! I also gave him the stock cylinders and 96mm KB pistons. He will bore them and check the fit. He did not want all my spinning parts yet.

Without my case I decided I needed somthing eles to work on so I got to cleaning engne tin, fan shroud, intake runners etc. etc.

Just dropped all that off at the local powdercoaters

I'm a big fan of Marks work. Not only does he work with you to get what you want, he does not set out to break your checking account.

Warrior Motors in Dallastown PA (near York). Probably a good 2 hours from S/C New Jersey. He does a LOT of v8 stuff, but always has VW stuff in his shop as well. he did my T4 case, and has done all the machine work for the 350 I'm building.

At one point Mark talked me out of the more expensive option as it would not have added benefit from my configuration. That alone save me ~$500. He is a stand up guy.

He did apologize and told me he will get to it as soon as possible

Dude, I am very sorry.
Mark was always really fast at returning my calls and always was willing to work with me about timelines. His shop is always full.

Next tuesday stop by marks shop to see if he is in. Ask him if his hand is better and when your stuff will be done. I he does not know then take it home. He will understand and probably has a huge backlog now.

Ask around. I know there is another VW place but don't know how much aircooled work they do. Call the guys over at Broadway Autoparts on 74 in Red Lion and ask them for a machinist. They have one on staff but he is not set up to do your work. He knows other guys though.

Also email some of the SPVWC guys. There are lots of VWs in the York area, and lots of machinists. Some will know VW stuff.

You could also call Translog, Peek Performance in MD. or Bus Depot outside Philly or Aircooled Racing just north of us and ask for a reccommdation.

Sorry Mark messed up his hand. He is good, but should be good in letting his customers know what's going on when they call too.
