I rebuilt my entire A4 using Don's rebuild manual and his Amish machinists to rebore the cylinders and remachine the head. Without Don Moyer, we Atomic Four owners would be up a creek. If his parts are more expensive (I've never looked elsewhere), in my opinion, it's money well spent just to maintain his expertise and knowledge. I learned a lot just attending one of his seminars.
