Im after some advice about swoping from an AUM engine to an AGU?
The aum currently fitted to the car has had oil pump failure (or blocked pick up) I'm yet to investigate that part yet
This has in turn dried the top of oil and caused the exhaust cam to snap under the cam cap between cylinder 3 & 4 theirfore I assume a few bent valves too?
Basing all this on cost:
3 new valves
New cam
Headgasket
Bolts
Oil pump (if it's failed)
It may work out cheaper drop another engine in. I understand the aum is vvt so I'd need to swop that to the agu head. Is the bare block and head the same? Swop everything over or would it be easier to source an AUM engine and straight swop?
Thanks in advance
