So, who's got an ee-tee-kay-ay?

[Knestis]

Thanks, all. I forgot you had one, Greg...

BTW I have seen people just run the whole high compression, hydraulic head motor with Rabbit intake manifold. Pretty blatant, but it has happened.

[Knestis]

LOL - That is indeed pretty blatant.

They tried to justify it by running at the A2 weight. I never ran against them, but would not have tolerated it if I had.

20 some years ago there was an ITB car with Bertils cast in the head. He was successfully protested. Driver is still around and still in B.

I have a Partslink24 account Kirk, if you ever need anything like that.

...so what I'm looking for is documentation of what SHOULD be under the hood in a MkI GTI, and enough detail that I can point out what's wrong.

** Any PN cast into the throttle body?

** Casting marks that should be on a Mk I but aren't, or are on something else and shouldn't be in the picture...?

** Documentation of easy-to-measure dimensions of the stock cam?

** Any visual identification on the G grind cam...?

TIA

These might help with visual identifications.
