    058 blocks came with both large and small port heads. I don't know the swaps in and out but I believe the head does not matter. It's the throttle body, ecu, pedals. Vvt will probably need to be removed also. Others will know more.

    I have a aeb head that has a chip up neer the cam sprockets and I'm not sure if this will cause engine to jump timing I can't seem to find any aeb heads in my area so I was going to use a head that was dbw and swap intake manifold and use my drive by cable throttle body being that aeb is large port head

    AEB is the only motor that used dbc in the B5s.

    Do you have a picture of the chip?

    You will be able to swap a small port head in no problem as long as you use the cam sprocket from your current head, swap the cam chain tensioner from your current head and of course the TB. Since the small port manifold doesn't have provisions to mount the dbc mechanism you would be correct using the large port.

    Head doesnt matter.

    You can swap throttle bodies, and even install the VVT tensioner in any 1.8t head.

    Where is the chip? Does not seem it warrants a head replacement.

    Chip? Camshaft position sensor?



    Same on all the 1.8t's

    Regardless, nor need for a head replacement. Get a pic up and explain clearly with associated pics your issue, and we will try and give you the cheapest, best, and reliable solution. I see this fix costing anywhere from free to $50 tops.

    Looks too close to the journal for me. I'd replace it but that's my opinion.

    As for the crank position sensor, they are the same, true. The rotor for the sensor though is different between the two heads. So whichever head you switch to, if you do, use the rotor from your head.

    I don't see any scoring on the cam. You'll be just fine. But I would make sure to locate the broken fragment and get it out, if you haven't already. Concern would have been losing oil pressure, but placement of the broken piece does not seem to pose a threat. If it isn't too much to ask can you possibly remove the intake cam to determine how bad it really is, to see if you will lose significant oil pressure. Pic necessary. Our car works on a closed loop oil pressure system. Pressure loss in one area can effect oil pressure in others.

    As for timing, you need to have the cam cap installed. Arrow on each cam cap pointing to notch on each cam, 16 links on chain between cams, exhaust cam pulley notch lined with valve cover notch, and crank dampener notch lined to lower timing belt cover notch. With all these lined up, you have perfect internal moving assembly timing.

    Thanks for all the help I'll keep you guys posted tomorrow I'll be putting the cooling system back together and exhaust manifold will go back on but it seems that the timing is dead on and nothing has jumped so far.

    That chip won't effect timing. It can effect oil pressure, though.

    That was my primary concern when seeing the pictures, the effect on oil pressure and the general oiling of that journal.

    If it is a head gasket issue is it the head gasket it self the blows or the cylinder head will be damaged I'm sure I just slapped the head on and didn't correctly tourqe the studs in and sequence I'm sure thats were I failed but I'll bleed the system and take it from there
