{"product_id":"engine-cylinder-head-simulator-kit","title":"Engine Cylinder Head Simulator Kit","description":"The IE Engineering Torque Plate (Part# IETLVA3) is a precision tool for engine builders and performance enthusiasts. Its primary function is to ensure that engine cylinders are perfectly round after boring, which is crucial for high-performance engines.\n\nThe plate works by simulating the distortion that occurs when a cylinder head is bolted onto the engine block. By mounting this torque plate to the block before boring, mechanics can ensure the cylinder bores are true and round in their operational state, preventing issues like oil blow-by, compression loss, and premature wear.\n\nThis comprehensive kit includes a precision-machined torque plate, necessary machined spacers, and wear-resistant hardened steel shims. A key benefit is its compatibility with factory-length bolts or studs, allowing builders to use the same fasteners they intend to use in the final engine assembly for the most accurate boring process.\n\nThis torque plate is designed to fit all VW and Audi 4-cylinder gas engines produced between 1983 and 2016+, including various 1.8T, 2.0T FSI, and 2.0T TSI applications across models like the Golf, GTI, A3, A4, and TT.","brand":"IE Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52872699511096,"sku":"IETLVA3","price":483.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/engine-cylinder-head-simulator-kit","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
