Welcome to the board. How many miles does the ole girl have on her. Sounds like youve got a little bit of a problem. Head work on these engines can get expensive. Might want to try a salvage yard for a wrecked aurora with lower miles and pick up the engine and transmission considering a new block is about 4500. Then have them go through and replace the gaskets and seals and you should be up and running. Shouldnt be too bad, especially if you got a decent deal on the car. Let us know the details of the car as there are alot of members who are very knowledgeable with Auroras. Good luck

salvage is my main motive but there telling me i can only get it from a 95? cant the block from a newer year work? i am going to pay 500 for it is that bad? only other ailments is a broken pass side mirror from my cousin trying to park in the garage(women drivers!)car is like a sky blue and interior is dark blue leather with no cracks! sunroof and other stuff you already know are in them.

Welcome back2life. I would imagine the compatability problems come from the Aurora switching from OBDI to OBDII in 1996. Only the '95s have OBDI.

But the cool think about the OBD I is you can put a chip in it! Wish we could do that on the later cars.

if you can get the complete engine, harness, and ecm from a later year, it'll work just fine.
