Went and looked at what was for sale.  There was the 1.6 t.d. block and 
turbo stuff.  No head, it was ruined by either a loose prechamber or 
fuel injector.  There was also a 1.6 n.a. block, a couple of n.a. heads, 
a 5 speed tranny mid 80's Jetta, and it looked like at least two engines 
worth of used turbo pistons, the couple pistons I looked at appeared 
that they would still be serviceable.  No mic so was relying on the mark 
1 eyeball.  $600 for all the VW stuff. 

Now if I am not mistaken the subject of heads was discussed and the 
consensus was that there is no difference between turbo and n.a. heads.  
Correct?
