Kobenschmidt .050mm OS. They have oil squirter notches for both D24T, and VW 1.6TD.

He must be selling old stock. My cost at work through an importer is almost 100 a piece...

Good deal for sure.

Same as you. Could have gotten them cheaper but I procrastinated too long. and the price went up.

My crank is washed, and polished. This engine had a double ring groove,f but the main and rod bearings had no visable wear at all. The crank is beautiful, solid steel. The thing weighs a ton.

Got my crank torqued down. 48ft/lbs. Couldn't find a torque spec on the oil squirter bolts, so I used a bit of lock tight, and cranked em down with a 1/4 inch ratchet.

My D24T Head is toast. I am planning on using my D24 Head instead, and was wondering what or if there were any differences in the two other than the cams, (which is suppose to be an up grade). ???
