Kirin, contact Darren Krewenchuk (sp?) for the headwork. He did my 044 heads and they were works of art. About 600 bucks a long time ago. Are the 94's A or B stroke pistons?? That makes a difference as to what crank you can use. I would go with a nice 1914CC engine, which is 69x94, but you need A stroke pistons to build that one. That, with a good set of heads and a W-120 cam would be an awesome driveable combination. If you let Darren do the headwork, I bet he could get an honest 120HP out of that. It would be super dependable, and wouldn't require massive amounts of money to build. I know you have a supercase, but I would personally go with an AE or AH stock case from VW. WAY better in my opinion. I have not heard good things about some of the supercases, but then, I've been out of the loop for about 5 yrs. Courtney
