It's really impossible - unless you have a machine shop - to do a
comprehensive rebuild of your heads yourself.

The part is a Cylinder Head Gasket, part 039101343B, available at VWFLAPS
and online vendors.

VW did away with this gasket, see http://www.dolphinsci.com/techbull.html ,
but it's still commonly used and included in gasket sets.

> I have decided to do my own rebuild.  One question on the heads, where the
head meets the cylindar (jugg), there appears to be a ring or spacer on the
head - one of which is pealing.  What is the part and where do I get them?
