True, mine is at 120K now and the end play is getting a bit loose, the only
thing Ive done is the valve jobs, but at 60-70K each, those valves REALLY
needed it... however, until this last set of heads they were all aftermarket
heads with Berg valves in them, not all VW.

That's probably correct, plus it's an AT, which I think limits the 
stress on the engine a bit, just because they tend to not get revved 
as high.
