camshaft has not been replaced, measure runout. If runout is within
specification, replace cylinder head. See CAMSHAFT table under ENGINE
SPECIFICATIONS. If runout exceeds specification, replace camshaft and
recheck. If oil clearance still exceeds specification, replace
cylinder head.
NOTE: When installing camshaft, ensure cylinder No. 1 camshaft

lobes are pointing up.
Installation
1) Lubricate camshaft journals and journal surfaces in caps
and cylinder head. Install camshaft with cylinder No. 1 camshaft lobes
pointing up.
2) Install and tighten camshaft bearing caps No. 2 and 4,
alternately and diagonally. Install and tighten bearing caps 1, 3 and
5. Seat bearing cap No. 5 by lightly tapping on end of camshaft.
Tighten camshaft bearing cap bolts to specification. See

OVERHAUL
CYLINDER HEAD
Cylinder Head
1) Clean all gasket mating surfaces. Check cylinder head for
warpage. See CYLINDER HEAD table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS. DO NOT
machine cylinder head.
2) When engine block or pistons are replaced, check piston
crown projection with piston at TDC. To check piston projection, use a
dial indicator and Mounting Block (VW385/17) mounted on top of engine
block.
3) Measure clearance between top surface of engine block and
crown/top of piston to determine appropriate head gasket thickness.
See HEAD GASKET IDENTIFICATION table. If clearance is greater than the
thickest available head gasket, repair lower end as necessary.
HEAD GASKET IDENTIFICATION

Number Of Notches On Gasket (1) Piston Projection - In. (mm)
1 ........................................... .036-.039 (0.91-1.00)

2 ........................................... .040-.043 (1.01-1.10)
3 ........................................... .044-.047 (1.11-1.20)
(1) - Notches are located next to gasket part number.

Valve Stem Oil Seals

Remove camshaft. See CAMSHAFT under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
To prevent damage to the new valve stem seals, place plastic sleeve on
the end of valve stem. Lubricate valve stem seal and place in Seal
Installer (US 5042) and carefully push onto valve guide.
Valve Spring
Remove valve spring using Lever (VW 541/1A) and Press Piece
(VW 541/5 or US 5042). Valves are supported by piston crown.
Valve Guide Inspection

Place dial indicator against valve head. Insert new valve
into guide until end of valve stem is flush with end of guide. Ensure
intake and exhaust valves are not interchanged. Move valve from side
to side and note play. Play should not exceed .05" (1.3 mm).
NOTE: Always reface valve seat after replacing valve guide.
Valve Seat
Valve seat should be reworked just enough to produce a
perfect seating pattern. Valve seat angle should not exceed 45
degrees. If reworking dimension is exceeded, replace cylinder head.
Valves
Measure valve stem diameter and margin. Replace valve if not
within specification. See VALVES & VALVE SPRINGS table under ENGINE
SPECIFICATIONS. Valve grinding is not permitted. Valve lapping by hand
is permitted.
Valve Seats
1) Insert valve into cylinder head. Holding valve closed,
measure the valve stem-to-cylinder head edge distance. See Fig. 13.
2) This measurement determines installed valve height.
Subtract measured distance from minimum specification. See
INSTALLED VALVE HEIGHT MINIMUM table.
INSTALLED VALVE HEIGHT MINIMUM

Application In. (mm)
Intake Valve ....................................... 1.41 (35.8 mm)

Exhaust Valve ......................................... 1.42 (36.1)
3) The difference is maximum refacing allowable for valve and

seat. If installed valve height is too high, replace cylinder head
assembly. If installed valve height is too low or too high, cam
followers will not work correctly.
Fig. 13: Measuring Installed Valve Height

CYLINDER BLOCK ASSEMBLY
Piston & Rod Assembly

1) Ensure piston, rod and rod caps are marked with matching
cylinder number prior to removal. Ensure engine front arrow is marked
on top of piston and front mark exists on rod and cap. See Fig. 14.
Pistons and rods are to be replaced in sets of 4. Rod cap bolts must
be replaced after removing or loosening.
2) Mark piston in relation to piston pin. Remove circlips
from ends of piston pin bore. Use Piston Pin Replacer/Installer (VW
222A) to remove and install the piston pin. If the piston pin is too
tight, heat piston to 140øF (60øC). Ensure rod is properly positioned
with piston. See Fig. 14.
Fitting Pistons
Measure clearance with cylinder block supported on work
bench. Check clearance of piston-to-cylinder bore. See
PISTON-TO-CYLINDER BORE DIMENSIONS table. Piston diameter is stamped
on top of piston.
