H5 engines were VW's first attempt at meeting US-market emissions standards ("M157"). Because they were jetted leaner they tended to run hotter, and it was decided to use a less-dense alloy for the case than had been used in previous engines (such as the "F" 1300 and "H0" 1500) in order to improve heat transfer out of the block. Turned out to be a horrendously bad decision - these "cottage-cheese" cases are infamous for warping, cracking, and pulling headstuds....the only thing they're good for is keeping the rain off of potentially usable internal parts (any time/money spent building an engine based upon an H5 is wasted, it's not a question of whether it will fail - only when).
