    Well, now you know! No cleaning involved, this is the first pic I snapped after I pulled the VC.

      Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

            That looks just as clean as my rebuilt B6T head... but without the rebuild. Very impressive!

              Actually, I found a time machine.

              Went back to '95 and found a '93 323 that was in a bad accident with only 11k on it, and brought the engine back with me b/c my DD needed a new engine!

                "I found a time machine."

                Don't lie Nate. We know you BUILT that time machine! Probably out of old car parts you didn't need.

                For a B6 that looks that new, "time machine" seems entirely plausible.

                NOW GO BACK AND GET SOME MOAR!!

                  If you power the time machine with the B6, will it go back in time faster?

                    That's beautiful, you got lucky lol. Even if I found an engine with that low if miles in a junk yard, some smart guy would have left the hood up back in 97 and a couple animals and the weather would have trashed it.

                      Everyone knows that the PRV V6 is the best way to power a time machine.

                      Holy crap the manifold heat shield bolts had a hex head from the factory?! I've never seen one that wasn't just a barnacle of rust and round.
