My bad, I was looking at it wrong. For some reason my paranoid mind added in the top part to that picture

Got it today, so stoked it's early so my le lip fits it perfectly.

looks good. I have a spare hood sitting around I'm going to do that too as well but try and make a SQ replica hood

hood looks absolutely WONDERFUL can't wait to see it finished.

I have aspirations to finish the metal work, then make a plug, and make myself a carbon one....but that wouldn't be any time soon...

Reminds me of the 67-72 Chevy truck hoods a little.

Looks better in your case though

Got my block back from the machine shop, in the process of cleaning it up for paint, and installing the rest of the components.... Pics to follow.

Kubota orange

Nice choice in color!

my original MC motor was a MOPAR big block Orange

Too bad there was a ring lip in the bores and rendered the block useless (for maintaining stock pistons vs. going aftermarket).

Years ago when I first got a bigger turbo and stg5 tune a friend said it sounded like a Kubota on crack, so....

Well poo, thats the color I painted my TDI block several months ago.

Making some progress, tomorrow I'm picking up a destroyed ported head, to use as a template for porting mine.

Nice work. I do have another head that I thought was toast but there was no smacky smacky after all. The crank broke at #4 rod, not the main, so everything was fine.

chaloux · Post by **chaloux** » Wed Nov 12, 2014 9:09 am

And also a spare 1.8t pan and oil pickup if you ever break that pan

I have to ask how did you break a alh crank? I'm assuming this was the one in your s4....

Clean. Keep it up

Afterthought · Post by **Afterthought** » Wed Nov 19, 2014 1:34 am

Paint is looking great!
That is going to be a lot of torque for a little 4K. My old 4k seriously moved with just an MC1 and K26

scubagli · Post by **scubagli** » Thu Dec 04, 2014 12:43 pm

I didn't like the way the oil cap stuck up on the alh valve cover so I cut it off and welded one from a 1.8t on.
