    lets talk ABA block in a B5

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    okay, so i have tried searching... but all the terms i can think of are too short or non specific enough, i am very interested in using a 2.0 ABA block in my car, for several reasons ranging from availiblity of the blocks and the parts for them, to the overall cost.

    i am just looking for some more information, i want to run an aeb head on an aba block, with a 3071...
    what i want to know is what kind of difficulties will be had trying to fit the aeb head on the aba block, what issues will i encounter mounting the block in the car, will i need to make any provisions for sensors, what kind of power can a stock aba block hold, and any other little issues that i am probably not thinking of ?

    lets turn this into an informative discussion about putting an ABA block into a b5
    if such a thread already exists point me in the right direction please.

    thanks guys
