I am making some progress pulling stuff off. Had a few hangups. Just had to pick up a 5' piece if iron to get leverage to break the crank bolt free. Now I need to rent a puller to get the balancer off.
Reading through this, I wonder if I did internal damage.
Engine number is: m28/21 82E 00528
Heads are 928.105.251.1R
Messy...

So before mid-'84 you're safe. Right?

there you go. near .5" of lift, and with euro 85, you have .2mm of contact. not good. but with 82, you have no contact,becuause the pocket is deep enough to handle .5" of lift

So what is the true HP and torque of this motor assuming internals are stock? I guess it is not really like the '83 down, but doesn't have the higher compression of the '84 up?
Also, I guess I will clean it up, put a belt on and run a compression check to verify. I may also get a boroscope and fish it down some plug holes and have a look.

Which would explain why some of the stock 85 16V cars I've seen on dyno's put down such large numbers (similar numbers to stock S4's with no knock/hall faults). With their higher compression, they're probably pushing a chunk more hp than the early 84's.
I still want to own a decent '86 16V at some point.. the car with it all - earlier style, S4 brakes, high compression revvy 16V motor etc. Just need to find me a no-sunroof 5-speed one

you should be able to do a compression or leak down test and know pretty quickly.
