Thanks Loren and Roger;
	I should have the 81 Rabbit diesel pickup on the road again today.
It has been idle for about 5 years since I pulled its engine to put in a
Dasher sedan. I have a good 81 Rabbit gas pickup with a 1.8 and about 120
hp. I have been driving it for years but I need a cross country pickup that
gets better mileage. I usually drive from home here in Washington State to
Maryland to see my daughter at least once a year.

1981 VW Dasher station wagon 1.6 D & 5spd
A 50 mpg car
--------------------------------------
1981 VW Dasher 4dr sedan 1.6 D & tall VW Fox 4spd
A good 50 mpg car and it is for sale
--------------------------------------------
1981 VW Rabbit pickup gas 1.8 & 5spd
A 28 to 30 mpg truck
------------------------------------------
1981 VW Rabbit pickup 1.6 D with fresh rebuild should 
be on the road today. 5spd and 11 inch Corrado front brakes
Should be good for 45mpg
------------------------------------------
1990 VW Fox 2dr Wagon diesel conversion project should be 
running by September. 1.6 Turbo diesel engine and 5 speed 
tranny from a VW Quantum. The battery is moved to the rear 
and an intercooler will be installed along with a 2.5 inch 
muffling system. 
I can't hardly guess the mileage on this one. 
Perhaps if I don't lead foot it about 45mpg.

Hi  Folks;

I have  installed a set of Raceware head studs in my 11mm 1.6
block and I don't  know what the torque spec is any more. Help me is you 
can.

I seem to always have the same problem.  I do have the RT-106  specs, which 
are pretty 
close to the RT-102 studs.
