Just curious: Has anyone converted a V8 to a 5cyl MC Engine?

The posting didn't really go into any detail about what other mods were
done to make it fit.  It simply says "straightforward" and a "drop in".
Hmm.  I'd imagine that there are at least a few small gotchas.

Moreover, look closely, and I think you'd agree that the gap around
the nose grill and where the headlight is just doesn't line up very
well.  The bottom of the grill also has such a big gap to the bumper
and it looks unfinished.  Let's just say that Audi wouldn't have built
it that way.  It may look ok from a distance, but upon close inspection
it's a different story...
