Hey guys its me Jason... and well I have gotten my head Gasket kit


ordered.. and well it should be here by monday.. and I hope to put it in


some time this week.. and well I had my heads JB welded.. but I am


scared of one thing.. one of my cyl's.. it has a crack between the


valves.. will it be ok for a few months maybe 4 or so? and if not..


should I just take it in and have it welded or what? I want to do this


as CHEAP as possible as in a few months I plan on buying an engine


probably from Fast German Auto.. any comments on where to get my


engine?  and how hard is it to get a 2.1 in there? I dont have to


change anything do I? sorry I am just trying to get as much input as


possible =) and I was considering putting a GTI Engine in from Euro


Sport? Anyone have that Web Page again?!? but its pricy.. 5k... bt


please  any comments.. I wish my Van was a Westy.. and I would


trade someone with some cash.. =) as my Van is an 85 GL With A/C


Worked b4 I took the heads off and I presume still will =)its Silver. and


has stock tyre size.pretty clean and If I cant trade it for a westy 72 or


older... or 84 or newer.. I am just gonna trick it out =) so I figure a 2.1


is enough ? oh well I will stop wasting web Space.. but please any


comments would be greatly appreciated!!
