r32 head on 2.8 24v?

[Botelho 0]

Hey guys quick question for ya'. A buddy of mine is in the process of building his mk3 24v turbo. Somewhere along the line we heard of a guy who had a build that used the 24v 2.8l bottom end with the r32 head. is this possible and what do you need to run a set-up like this. Any info would help. I know that the 24v head wont fit the 12v bottom end so iwas wondering if a build like this would be possible. Thx in advance.

and im guessing the chains would cause a problem let alone the valves hitting possible hitting the pistons ..... then u got the head bolt pattern .....

I think all of the 'modern' v6 blocks, 4moiton, r32, are the same, they're all from the same generation. The vr6 block is different as the angle of the v is wider, the pistons aren't flat like they are on the modern blocks. But i think you can put a r32 head on a 4motion 24v headed) block.
