Figured I would post some pics of my hard work. Its a VW 1.8 liter type 4 motor with bone stock L-jetronic fuel injection. I pulled the 2.0 motor out so I can build it bigger with a larger torque range. The engine you see is my temporary motor, my first attempt. It runs pretty damn well considering all the beer it took to get me thus far lol
It has good compression all the way around, and smooth idle.
Yes I am proud

seems like that intake manifold would choke it to me, but maybe I am just to use to the big piping in my 5.0?
