The guy at the local VW parts place was really cool and practically gave me a set of old stock german intake valves for my 1.7

I was so shocked i about dropped my slurpee.

We chatted for about 5 minutes about heads and he pulled from under the counter and said merry Xmas.

Well,

this is what i've got so far.

4 TRW intake valves
2 TRW exhuast and 2 No name

springs and caps and chromoly pushrods I just ordered from jake

new german retaining clips

modified rocker assemblies

and a set of heads i'm putting up on ebay.

Was going to use these ones I had resurfaced at Rimco, but after speaking with a machine shop decided i would rather use a set of sweet/perfect cores they had lying there rather than the ones i just had resurfaced. Mine had already been rebuilt once before i got them, while these other cores look never touched. Told me that we could CC the cylinders and cut the virgin heads to get the compression i wanted.

Any suggestions on a good compression ratio for a 1.7?

I'm also trying to pick up this other motor to put in the car while the work is being done.

Then i think the swivel feet might be worked out. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
