Cully's spare Gti6 engine

[cully]

Ah great was the engine faulty before you started? As i've got a 6 engine at a mates and wondering whether to start to rebuild it In my spare time.

Is bascailly swapping out old to new or do bits need to be machined?

Did you use a guide to work from?

the engine gearbox loom ECU were bought unseen, with a suspected scrap head
for a spares pack for mine, but on stripdown inspection the engine was low on compresion and the inlet resinator was split, so at that point it was decided to refresh the engine

as for machining yes and no all depends on what you find when you inspect
everything has a tollerance if its within no machining if its out it may need regrinds or skims

all the info is within this post
as for guides
i have two ive been working with one is here one is to big for here
other info has come from bearing supplyers websites and forums
but most if not all that ive found is here in this thread
