I`am currently running an 1Z with a mTDI setup in my syncro, but it is using alot of oil so i will have to find another one.
My local breaker has got a load of low mile AHU engines lying around. Am i right to think that this would be a straight swap? I will only change the shortblock and the head, everything else will be taken from my current engine. Would i stumble upon any problems? Will the injectors from the 1Z fit in the AHU head? |

AHU and 1Z are both the same 1.9tdi 90hp engines, so no problems with swap at all

Con rods are different but interchange. No lump on ahu.
I have it in my head that the ahu was 89 and 1z 87.
no problems swapping internals from `1y, 1z, AEF, AHU, AFN blocks but you end up with different things hence an afn block and crank is a good upgrade for an aaz.

Ahu is built for bigger bhp , alot of the ahu seat lumps were 110 instead of 1z 90
From memory they had better crank/piston bearings to match the increased power. |

1Z and AHU non auto injectors the same.
Audi blocks can be a problem to mount.
110`s afn. Bigger nozzles and vnt. Stronger block.
Sputter top shells introduced later but a good upgrade retrospectively as the top big end shell is the first to wear out.
The later 110 Seats, post `98, got AHF; crank and block (and head) not interchangable but rods and pistons good Edited by rolo - 17 Aug 11 at 06:06 |
