I couldnt find a section pertaining to the pre A8 Audi V8. Does the A8 share the same engine albeit with a different capacity?
Was this engine based on two vag 1.8 20v engines? If it was, are the heads mounted opposit ways round to put the exhausts on the outside, or were mirror image heads cast for the second bank?
Does it share a bellhousing pattern (and hence box fitment) with the older audi 5 pots?
At what point in their lifespan did these engines change to an alloy block (I believe they did?)
Any major known weakpoints on the V8?
Whats the going rate for a second hand unit complete with loom and ecu?
Cheers
