Audi Ur-Q vs. Mustang 308

[bmxman 69]

I didn't mean for it to come across as harsh.

All apoligies if I did, and don't worry I've used my doggy CGT for drag 
racing more then once.

In regards to the 5.0 liter, I like to think of it as a last resort.  If you 
have a thing for it, use it.  Otherwise why not get your hands on a real 
power builder such as a 350 or a 400.  Both of which can be made into MUCH 
larger motors in the 427 cubic inch range.

Can you justify over boring a 302 into a 308?  I can't, there's really no 
reason to.

About the Quattro drive train, It really was built with one thing in mind.  
On road performance in off road conditions.
