ah, I see. The goal was to change tension without loosening the water pump. I thought you just couldn't get the 20v backing plate.. since they are different than the 20v backing plates.. Nevermind then 8-)

Sorry I just have to say, god that's sexy! With all that red in there, maybe it's just the spring talking, but does that make anyone else want to hump something? :tard: LOL :-D

whew, yes i used my 7a backing plate but added a hole in it for my new tensioner and just had to be anal and seal it up nice. thought you were going to say you found a timing belt to work. after me going through about 400 gates part numbers i was kind of hoping i had not missed one. :P

well, it is coming slowly but surely. it is going well, just slowly. i am happy with everything though. it is turning out really neat. always a lot of distractions. my digital cammera moved out but i may find another one :wink: my target date for starting is aug 19th because my audi is blocking another car of mine that i want to rally cross on the 19th.

i started my IIc / mod mc2 short block/7a head CQ

Post by pkw »

i did not make my aug 19th date for starting so i could relax and i did some of the other small things, and well, it was just time to start it, so i did. i did not run it for long because of the lack of coolant. start-up went well. :woowoo:
few more things before i rip it down the road. i will have to get some more pics going.

There is a dealer solution for the timing belt. The aan/aby/Adu engine came with an adjustable idle pulley. :wink:

an update. the only thing i was worried about with this build was the car being too sluggish off of boost.... not a problem. i am sure the low, close gearing and it being lighter weight than a big bodied audi all help. the ENGINE AND TURBO ARE A GREAT COMBO. this car is much better than a 5ktq which is where i pretty much draw the line. so, in summation i have a very strong bottom end that is stronger in some ways than the high dollar combos folks are building. :woowoo:

FYI...in messing with mine, i think i found a mistake regarding the sensitivity adjustment of the apc unit. AFAIK, COUNTER CLOCK-WISE IS MORE SENSITIVE......so, for the record....

I drove by your house last week. You were gone. I was hoping to get to check out your project since I was in the area.
