V8 Parts, rod, main bearings, piston rings, std. size

[cobram at juno.com]

Never needed anything for the V8, but I have bought parts for similar "no
internal parts available" engines by going to a good machine shop or
rebuilder that does 4N stuff.  The Deves Company (I think they're in
California) can match up any piston rings you might need, make sure and
specify that you need rings for a hypereutectic alloy/aluminum etch
cylinder (ala Mercedes and BMW).  The Rod and Mains should be an easy
match IF you have the old ones.  

This has saved mucho bucks, especially the Deves rings, as some teutonic
companies will not sell piston rings, but only offer the complete
piston/ring sets for prices that would put Audi to shame.  

If you do find anything, please post the specifics.
