3a fitments...

[mr.utility at highstream.net (David Utley)]

I was just talking to someone else on the list about this, and I had thought
that it would fit.  Are you fairly certain that it will not mount up without
any problems?  If so, where?

To me, this head/manifold is beggin to have a turbo, which is why I am
interested.  That, and I have one already...  :)

Too many engines, not enough suitable cars...

It is possible to use the 3A head but you get some fitment problems.
(Oops, I really mean the Audi INTAKE.) Erm, the HEAD is uh, damn I gotta
go back and research that one.

I can almost guaranty the 3A was NOT a factory install.

We need more input as to the donor's history.
