Rebuilders of 2.0 engines/heads might be interested
in some tech info in the latest Excellence magazine
(November 2004), page 161, where tech expert Jim
Pasha talks about rebuilding 2.0s to 2.2 with "up
to 160 reliable horsepower."  He writing about 914
Porsches, of course.

Of interest also to waterboxer builders are some
comments and photos of cracks in heads around the
spark plug holes--welding and then reboring for
12mm plugs.  Plus a promise of more info in the
future.
