The problem with conversion is that it's way too long for the engine bay because of the Auto box and they will have to make a custom front end to rap it all up.

Now if you wanted to drop in say a S8 V8 lump you will find it will fit with some custom work and you will have the options of doing a custom Turbo conversion or a Supercharger. The S8 engine gives you the option of running a manual box with a smaller flywheel adapter which the RS6 engine does not allow.

Another V8-engined B5, this time, based in Canada.
