I love that idea of a small black V8 mating to a euro 'box. I have a UR Quattro that I am thinking of putting a V6 Audi tt into. However, there are a number of US companies that make adapters for LS1/2s to audi 'boxes for the kit car market so one of those babies in the front of a quattro makes your mouth water......Would all mate up lovely and no finding space for turbos etc etc....
