Cleaned head This motor had perfect compression and ran great, so I didn't touch the valves Last modified: May 18, 2006	Exhaust studs eEuroparts studs are indeed smaller. I went with all small studs, but I had to reuse one in a whole were the thread was stripped near the top.

Note: attached the oil lines to the turbo before tightening the exhaust manifold nuts when reinstalling. Doing it the other way is very hard. Last modified: May 18, 2006
