[T3] more questions on The Baroness

[Daniel K. Du Vall]

Before jumping to any conclusions get the motor apart and have it inspected by someone in the know.  You will just drive yourself nuts speculating what's in there till you do.

Subject: [T3] more questions on The Baroness

Hi guys,
I was just talking to my bf's coworker, who happens to be a VW nut.  He told me some interesting stuff.

He says that if it is the camshaft, it may have been caused by a bad rebore of the case.  So, the case would have to be sent out and rebored again.  He thinks it would be better to buy a new block, instead of fixing what's in there.  What do you guys think about that?

We haven't taken the engine out yet.  I need a place to stash The Baroness for a month while Lloyd works on the engine in my garage.
