Just noticed that my odometer is now 9000 miles past 400k... I remember turning 300k after I put a 93 jetta block (ABA 2liter) under the "original' 1.8 liter motor's head... That allows me to keep everything below the lid... At a guess, I had over 100000 miles on that head on the 1.8 liter motor before I bolted it onto my $300 Jetta motor... Still no signs of anything bad.. Still getting 24+ mpg...Not bad, eh? Hopefully another couple of hundred thousand miles before I need to pop in another $300 inline....
