Finally tracked down those VW Rebuilt engines up here in the Great White North. With the help of Denis sending me the part number, O25-100-031-EX, Citiwest VW found that there are three in the Ajax warehouse. The part number is in the ETKA 7 program. Price is $3300 CND and yes they will accept any condition core even with a hole in the crankcase. My bud at Citiwest told me that a few years back VW as accepting cores and paying for them. They finally found they were taking a loss and stopped that after some enterprising soles were going around to scrap yards and collecting engines to turn in for profit. Cheers,
