Weird crankshaft in my AAN engine

It must seriously lower the compression being 6mm off deck height so unless you want a much lower compression ratio for some reason then I'd want the correct crankshaft.
7A, RR, 3B, ABY, AAN and ADU all use the same crank.
So, any of those engine codes can do? Are they all forged?
Because I ran into info that basically any crankshaft from I5 would work.

if your piston is 6mm under the top of the block at tdc i would ask some questions how it ran.
anyway the crankshafts are not the same in all 5 inline engines so there are some details that you want to pay antention. not all 7a, rr cranks are forged.
if your not planing running crazy power get a crank from ng2 engine its not forged but cost alomoast nothing.

Yes, as far as I'm aware all the 2226 CC engines use the same forged crank.
It's possible the one from a 2301 CC 10 valve NG engine may also be the same as they used the same block casting as the 2226 engines, not sure if they used a different stroke or larger diameter pistons to gain the extra 75cc.
I can check the bore diameters as I have both blocks/cranks in my workshop, they're both already sold however.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.

I’m gonna go for bigger power in the long run, I’ve already bought forged rods, so cast crank is a big no for me, but don’t know how can I know which one is forged, except visually, since they all have the same number.
And when you say that they are not the same, do you mean on forged/cast or something more?

Anyone knows what can I expect price wise, regarding forged crankshaft for AAN?

I'm 99% sure the NG is also forged, I have a block and crank under my workbench without a sump on that I can check out for you, I'll try and find time this afternoon to have a look and take some measurements and photo's.
If it is the same then NG cranks are very common, I sold the bare block and crank for ÂŁ150 which I was pleased with. The guy who purchased it is using it as the base for a 3B S2 engine build and knows what he's doing so I'm pretty sure the crank would be forged.
If not then a good 2226 crank is probably worth between 100-300 Euro's, I guess it depends on which country it's in.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.

Yes, I know, NG is a rather common I5 engine, I have it in my Audi 90 B3 quattro and I surely hope it is forged and that it fits in my AAN engine.
Waiting for your reply.

The only logical answer is that it is from a NM engine.
For me, that is the only thing that makes sense.
I can’t see any other option.

I had to spend most of this afternoon moving firewood into the house otherwise I'd be cold this evening.
Yep the NG is a really common motor and the NF as found in C4's is pretty much identical, I didn't know that some NG cranks were cast as 'rxl' points out, I'm pretty sure the one in my old block that came from a 1992 Coupe is forged.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.

Here's my NG block and crank, the NG has an 82.4mm bore and my 3B is 81mm. So they certainly used bigger pistons in the NG/NF. No part No on the crank, just the few cast numbers in the photo's.
