Thanks guys!
The gasket wasn't the cause it was one of the pistons cracking, I guess cast pistons and rods can only take a certain amount of load!
Got the crank pulley and upper timing chains...
Thanks Josh!
Lower timing chains are on now and I've put a new metal head gasket and torqued down the head to spec. Not long now I just need to set the timing, bolt on accessories and cover...
Hey guys!
Sorry for the delay I've been off the forums a while and only checked up on it recently.

Yeah sweet as that'll be exciting when it's registered and will be good for you to come to Nationals and meet a bunch of guys.
Yeah see how long you stick with 8psi because it won't be long before...
Nice buy mate you couldn't build one for a quarter of the cost you paid. Are you planning on coming to VW Nationals in May? Also is this Jamie's [Jamie88] old 3 door by the way?
