Swapping the head from AMU motor
I damaged my head from tb break..
pics at www.sabihkhan.com/auditt/tb/
Now My question was that I know the AMU motor is different than the ATC, AEB. But i hear the BEA from 2003-2005 is very similiar.
Will the head from the ATC bolt into my amu motor..without modification, or do the cams need to be changed like i was originally told.
Which other cars have the same pistons as the AMU. I know the size/compression may be the same, but ive read the AMU has the same part number as the BEA and nothing else.
sorry about the rant. anyone?

Because im strapped for cash atm, and its more cost effective to buy a used head
than to repair my old one i think, i was also looking for used AMU pistons as well. do you have a good condition AMU head lying around.

AMU same as ATC and AEB are NON-VVT heads, AWW, AWP and BEA are VVT heads
not sure about cams - but I really doubt there is any difference for any of the AWW or AWP heads. SO - if you are AMU - you need a NON VVT head.
