Looking good. At least you wont need to worry about the new heads dropping a seat like the original ones did. There is a guy in San Marcos who welds up the original heads. Then threads the seats and screws them in. They last over 100k miles. on a type 4. Type 4s biggest problem was valve seats turn sideways and hit the pistons. Otherwise the bottom end would last forever.
In the previous video you mentioned something about softening the edges inside the combustion chamber of the head, did I hear you correctly? I'm wondering if you could explain or show exactly what you mean? Thanks for the VW engine videos, I'll be assembling two in the next year or less for two ('72 and 73) Super Beetles I'm building.
Thanks Darrin. Your experience is priceless.
I always enjoy listening to your thoughts as you put sub-assemblies together.
Love it. I learn so much from your vids, man. Keep up the good work. Thanks.
