Jimes256:
Hi all newb here. Hoping someone can tell me the best block to use for big power tune? I believe some have cross bolted main caps? Currently have cdl with circa 500hp and want to build a spare race engine. Also can we get apr flowed heads here or are they stateside only? Thanks

pudding:
Any of the K04 EA113 engines.  BYD Edition 30, CDL S3, Cupra R, MK6 R etc etc

Awesome GTI are APR importers so could probably get the heads.

Jimes256:
Thanks. So do all of those have cross bolted mains? And what’s main differences?

pudding:
Yes 4 bolt mains plus bigger wrist pins, stronger cylinder head material, more lift on the HPPF cam lobe, stronger and lower compression pistons etc etc.

A lot of differences for just 30-60hp more than a GTI.

Jimes256:
We have ie head and will only be keeping the crank and just want to know codes of the best block to buy?!
