Jason.

My son still has my 245 which is quietly rusting but could be driven home. It probably has at least a 100K on a complete overhaul. He isn't driving it.

Just had a thought. Once upon a time there was a 5 cylinder version of this engine that Audi used. Anyone know what years this was and what cars? Were they imported into the US?

Yeah. My decimal placement is off. Must have been thinking in inches as I typed. I figured the setting would be okay. Actually my base setting was around 87 which would have been okay by Alldata. As...

Looking for head studs ARP

The title says it. Looking for some ARP head studs. Gave my 245 D24T to my son a while back and he has over-heated it. Don't know if this happened before or after the gasket blew.

34 mpg?

What are your driving habits getting 34 mpg? Best I can do of late is 28-30. I might be a bit heavier with a 3245 though.:(
