> 198.137 Head Gasket (Goetze for factory 2 liter VW and Audi)
> 103.130 Block Off Plate/CIS mount for Audi 80 2.0L in A1
> 103.103 Standard head bolts (all 8V w/washer) ea.

> 103.145 2.0 Distributor Gear to Adapt Early Distributor to 2.0L Block
> Knock Sensor from '85-'87 GTI or GLI with CIS injection.
