Yeas, it has a DJM 4/5 drop. 4 in front, 5 in rear.
However, i didn't like how level it sat (probably because i have a lightweight truck, so the front doesn't come down moar), so i installed a lift shackle to raise the rear ~1inch or so. Gives a nice little rake.

Well, sold the engine, made $400, so i bought stuff for the head work on the 2.3t.
Got bigger valves and some other stuff. Started to grind away at the combustion chambers to lower the compression. Going to port and polish too. Need to order more carbide bits to get everything done. Just used what i had lying around.
My work station. Nice little set up to hold the head:
PPE:
Grinder and variac to control grinders speed:
One bit i used:
Before i started work:
AFter some work. Still need to finish it up and then measure its volume:
Big valves:
Cam bearings, harden seat:
Big intake valve:
exhaust:
