Hi all:
Just listed this head gasket kit and head bolt set as a package deal on Ebay and thought I'd give everyone a heads up. It's for a 2.0L, 1998-2001 (so an AEG motor). This Fel-pro brand kit has an OEM VW head gasket and Viton valve stem seals, so it's good stuff, even if it ain't "Made in Germany" I'm also throwing in a new dipstick tube.

Trying to get $89 for it..... got the bidding started at $49.99. New, the cheapest price I can find online is about $120. Opened, but guaranteed all there.
Also, I have one 225/40/ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sport with about 70-80% tread left, if anyone is interested in having a spare - would like to get $35 for it (it's like $225 new). I had bought it for $70 (actually a pair for $140) but then Costco ground too much material off of the other one when doing a patch which destroyed the tire - so I had to buy a pair of new tires - leaving this one by itself. Sure could be a life saver if you are running 18's and you have a tire go and are short on cash
Also, still doing timing belts for 2.0L and 1.8T's... $250 for 2.0L and $275 for a 1.8T. Latest one was an Audi TT (AWP motor) last weekend. That is labor only - bring your own parts. It will take 4-5 hours but where I live is within walking distance of 2 museums and tons of antique stores, restaurants, etc... so you'd find plenty to do to kill 5 hours, especially on a Saturday.
I'm northwest of Atlanta in Cartersville.
Thanks!
Justin
