2.0L question............

[DIUTLEY@aol.com]

Hey Listees.........
    
    I have a GX code 1.8 that I would like to build to be a high compression 
2.0 8Ver.  From what information I can glean from Bentleys, the Gti head had 
a 2mm larger intake valve, and the same bore.  I must assume that the higher 
compression comes from a smaller dish in the pistons, right?  Also, I have to 
guess that the only way to get increased dispalcement is through another 
crank, right?  I know, I know.  I am a freak for wanting an 8V instead of a 
16V.  Don't think I haven't thought about it.  I just like scaring V8s off 
the line in this rusted, heavily bent piece of a VW............But back to 
the point.  I am trying to build this as stock as possible, no over bores or 
anything wacky.  I'm going for longevity.  I think that after this stage I 
will seriously consider a turbo, after I figure out how to make the car 
stick.  :-)

Anyways, your wisdom here is greatly appreciated.......

And no, you can't make me buy a scirocco.  No, you can't.  No 
really...........  :-)
