Hello 

and

Blah blah grumble blah... 

Sequence of events:  1992 audi S4 decides to run hot one day - 2/3 to 3/4 of the way up the meter but not "really hot yet" in my assessment 
so I head home.. 
and the car..
...overheats.....dramatically

( yes I know )

Upon getting it home and inspecting things, the innards of the temp sensor .. came out.. thereby reporting incorrectly..

Long and short of it, I get to do a cyl head, as its toasted.. 

SO..

Being not the type of person to just go back "stock"  anyone got any advice, ideas, links or parts?

Budget is medium, I cannot do a full RS2 unless parts show up at a pretty good deal..... but small tweaks to the head while its being machined and such .. yep! 

166k miles, 1992 5 cyl 2.2l.  only modification is the VERY well documented 1.8T coil pack conversion..THANK YOU AGAIN

There you have it .. I throw this at the collective brains :) 

Thanks in advance! 

Ken

calls are welcome, however I work in a hectic CNC machining shop and rarely hear or can answer.. but I will SURELY reply to voice mails!
