Seeking opinions . I have a 90 Tsi with 155k miles . I now have 2 broken easy outs in head . Should I just get a head from a sponsor or a rebuilt engine ? I was thinking of SBR for head ( sounds dirty when I put it that way ) and I saw KARKING.COM has a rebuilt 2.0 turbo engine for 1200$ . Does the bottom end need attention on a daily driver if I just go with head .:talon:
 
If I only replace head , does the bottom have the life and strength to hold on ?
 
When your buying bolt on parts from venders its fine. But when your getting machine work done do some research, and find out who builds the best head/block. Who has had problems with that venders work. Your going to be shelling out alot of $ so do some research first.
