[urq] Same valves?: WX/WR head - WR cam if you need one!

[Martin Pajak]

Guys,

Also it has the exhaust manifold that will never crack!  The casting
between #5 and #4 cylinder is not present in these early engines so there
is nothing to crack!  No idea why Audi changed it.  I've installed one of
those manifolds on my ex '83 MC and was very happy with it.
I have some pics to show the difference.

The struts, yeah, those are great for 5 bolt conversions.
And it's actually moss growing back there.. :)

If I lived closer I would be bidding on this one.

Cheers
