my cam just barely clears the ramps.  I can barely fit a feeler guage 
in there I can see where it may have hit when someone else first 
installed it.  idles a little rough.  other than that goes great.  
anyone know what this is???????  It is a mystery to me.  I bought it 
as a complete head other than the cam the head is stock.

Tell your friend to do a little more research because the solid lifter euro GTI
cam *is* the g-grind. And you don't have to grind anything away at all. In fact,
I've never heard of a need to clearance the head for any cams meant to be run
with fuel injected heads. Maybe this would be necessary for wild profile carb
cams, but I doubt it.

> Thanks for the help

No problem, bro. Ask me some more if you want.
