Sleeper S2 Avant +400HP

In the top photo it also goes through to the valve seat as well? But I guess that can be replaced

To be honest plan was to get a 7A head and start out from that. All spark plug holes have cracks

[A80Avant]

Better choice that.

Jonas your mailbox is full!

All good know.

So block is bored, honed, cleaned and painted.

Had to bore to 81,5mm pistons, but rebuild is progressing nicely now. Ended up getting Woesnerr pistons from CS-parts.de



Also had my local hose specialist make a new return hose for the bomb and steering rack. It was leaking multiple placed. Ended in 70 euro compared to 200+ euro at Audi.


Next step is to machine the 7A head so it can be fitted to the block.

Does anybody know where the diamond washer is located at the crank pulley?

Oh yeah will have a Tommis Billet crank pulley for sale.

[Jonas_R]

Main bearings and pistons

- moving along nicely.

Sure will.

Why not go for 82.5 or 83 to get more cc?

[rxl]

You need a custom headgasket and the cilinder walls loose the stability

Area 0 bore 81mm: 5150,39mm^2
Area 1 bore 81,5: 5214,17mm^2
Area 2 bore 82,5: 5342,91mm^2

Stroke: 86,40mm

Volume 0: 2.225cc
Volume 1: 2.253cc
Volume 2: 2.308cc

So that is a gain of 83cc compared to stock or 55cc from 81,5 to 82,5 not worth it in my opinion.
When looking at needing new gasket, thinner walls, re boring could be an issue if engine would fail again (not that I think that)

Always as nice to see an I5 block in this state.

Thanks

Still a long way to go when the engine is done, but plan is to have it running in may
