yep looks like its been tensioned way too far , remove it , fully realse it then bleed it in oil half way ,
 
Found the problem mate the threads on the inside of the block dont go all the way in so i need a m22 x 1.5 tap to finish it off then the bolt will go fully in! Some of the older vr6 engines come like this but others are threaded the whole way through!

How are your projects coming along anyways?

Just read the lot.. All I can say is :-o Mate!! You are nuts! Serious though, you are a mastermind!! You really know your stuff, your not an arse, like some people can be, and you can weld like a factory machine!!

My hat is off to your sir!! You are an actual LEGEND!!

P.s... Caddy is a beast bro!! Its amazing!!
 
I was just thinking about your thread the other day. Haven't you just sold Dan a turbo? I was following your thread on ClubGTI didn't no you where on here as well!

Mate your the modder of all modders. This is wicked would love to have time and money to do something like this.

its not rocket science bud once u get ur head around the wireing bit lol rest is common sense really
 
If you went for a GTB2260vk on a tubular mani, 300bhp is achievable with the right injectors. Problem being finding said injectors, as nobody has really done much with the PPD engines yet. The siemens management/injection is a pig to work with.
