Aug 28, 2016 · It has been cleaned up from prior use and it came from the best crank builder of all time. I have a large stroke crank in my engine now and it has the type 4 center main. The crank I'm considering has a longer stroke, but all type 1 mains. I understand the concept of having a type 4 center main. I see that CB offers their cranks in all type 1 ...

VW provided a half-inch diameter vent hole on top of the generator stand near the oil filler cap. A tube ran from the vent hole to the air cleaner, providing a low-pressure path for the vented gasses to follow to the intake.

You guys pretty much got the diffferences right but I want to be a little clearer: By engines..we are talking case and internals.

Post by Piledriver » Thu Jan 16, 2014 8:35 am One of the better characteristics of a turbo header is that the turbos really don't seem to give a damn... compact, short and sweet logically works best in most cases, but full header systems with an uppipe seem to work just as well, differences lost in the noise.

Mar 23, 2002 · If you can't trust a VW factory sticker, what can you trust? I guess I'm starting to answer my own question--the red mark is 7.5 BTDC, and there isn't any TDC valve adjust mark.
