Are the M52TU blocks Nikasil, Alusil or iron liners?
Is it possible to use a M52TU block to rebuild an not-TU M52?

Some useful info in this post for you half way down
http://forum.roadfly.com/threads/128807 ... s-the-deal
according to them the m52tu is cast into the block iron liners
with regards to "Is it possible to use a M52TU block to rebuild an not-TU M52?" not sure what you mean ie are you going to use m50 head or m52tu head vanos not connected?
Hope I'm not asking stupid questions, I have a lot of respect for your posts and I have the time to search out answers for you and we all like to help fellow zoners, cheers.

No, they are very different blocks. All steel liners from what I've seen
