HEY EVERYONE!
I joined this site hoping that someone can help me. I'm currently busy fixing my 1.6 v8 mk1 golf(carb) 4 speed which I had for about 7 years now/ LONG STORY SHORT :crazy: bearing knock struck at piston 3 so I cut my crank, bearings 020.0 oversized and im at that point of putting it back but i need the torque settings for big ends, mains and head blots but i cant see to find my block(YP144946) specs anywhere. it might be from a passat or jetta.
:type:
I've got a ford escort mk2 which is missing a propshaft :crazy: Blots came loose on it and slid out but these a 2L pinto in with a 5 speed and 1300 diff.
SO im going to need someone to rebuild it or make a new one.

Please if any one cane help. I'd drop my left two Lugnuts to :driving: my baby again!!!
