whats the difference between lq9 and lq4 ?
i have been looking around the forum and i cant really seem to find the difference between these two motors, if somebody can point out the differences between these motors and the pros and cons of each that would be great,i plan on using one of these motors in my bmw swap

bought 2000 lq4: cast iron cathedral port heads , longer crank flange, it had flat tops though. lq9 I think is newer had aluminum cath port,not sure but I think the crank was same length as ls1.

Vin # from original vehicle will tell you what you have. If you don't have that info you have 2 options. #1 you'll need to pull the head off to see the pistons. #2 if you have access to a bore scope you could look into one of the spark plug holes to see the piston.

im going to cross reference the vin when i get back in town, to make sure of the motor i will be getting, seems like either of these motors are a good option for what i am doing
