they removed some internal reinforcement ribbing & the 9-5 block is more prone to flex then the B204,B234,B205 & erly B235
so yeah getting a B234 would be a good idea
Im noticing that there are fewer & fewer B234s around
in my car Im going to use B235 rods, crank & forged pistons in a real clean B204 block I have here because I can get a spent B235 & a set of forged pistons,bearings,gaskets & seals way cheaper then I can get a good used B234 & end up with a better engine in the end
take care
