Is the 10v engine in my 1991 80 an interference head?

"Same" engine as what is in my old 5kq. I had a timing belt loose about 15 teeth
and not take out a darn thing in the engine. At higher RPM where valve-float can occur there is a far greater chance to have a valve kiss a piston. At idle, like what happened to mine, no (it was hit dead on the front of the engine by a Jeep Cherokee Classic while stopped at a red light).

Re: yea i was under the impression the 2v per cylinder (Audi/VW) were all non interference motors
if you think about it, Audis 12v V6 is an interference motor, but the VWs 8v is not, VWs 16v is... it all depends on the motor
