I have a 1987 audi 5000 turbo that i’ve had for a little over a year, when i purchased it the head had been removed because the last owner was running too much boost and f%^ked it up. He purchased a new head/ cam/ all the gaskets and such. after a little bit at mark wetzels garage (squid) the head and everything was back together, unfortunatelly it wasnt starting up. during a little finagling session a buddy and me found it to be a bad ground wire. as it sits now, the car runs, i’ve taken her up and down my street a few times the only thing that seems to be the issue now it a faulty steering rack. Obviously once this car is up and driving there will be a few bugs, but thats whats going to happen when a car sits for a year right? the car starts up and runs but the steering rack is shot, i will include 2 bottles of the proper steering fluid. \*i planned on keeping this car and making it a project to have fun with, but my current financial situation is not conducive for that. i have a decent amount of money invested in this car so my price is 2200 obo. this is the work mark alone put into the car Remove exhaust manifold Pull head from motor Remove and replace turbo oil lines Make and install new turbo water line Clean deck surface of old gasket material Clean bores of corrosion Re-thread exhaust manifold studs Order new exhaust manifold nuts Clean residue off head Install exhaust manifold on head Clean paint off intake manifold mating surfaces, inlet tracts, fuel barbs Get nuts to install wastegate to manifold Get new head bolts Install head on block Install intake manifold on head Get new accelerator cable clips Remove distributor and time motor, reinstall distributor Get new timing belt Install cam gear, timing belt and cover Fix P/S pump bracket, nstall P/S pump Get new belts and install.
