I've got a 2002 a4 avant auto quattro and its spat its conrods out the block. Im finding it near impossible to source a replacement ASN engine so i was wondering what other choices are there? The 2.8s seem ten a penny so was wondering how different they are to the 3.0?
Off on another tangent, 4.2 v8s seem fairly common and you can pick up a whole a8 4.2 for 1500quid, so are the bellhousing/flywheel arrangements the same as the 3.0 and would the gearbox and quattro take the extra power and uuumf? Engine conversions arent new to me ive been doing vauxhall conversions for years, but i take it all these are canbus? How kindly do they take to being transplanted? As in if i fit the whole engine loom and ecu will the rest of the car have a fit?
Or if anyone knows of a 3.0 ASN engine anywhere that would be perfect.
Thanks :)
