monster projekt?

[Nate Stuart]

I'll vouch for the fun factor the Audi V8's give. I've got the 'little' 
3.6l v8 in my 90 and it transforms the car. Runs beautifully off the 
034efi ecu, and no worries about the distributors clearing. Not sure 
where you're located, but I give lots of rides autocrossing :-P

Lots of random pics and some info on the swap here:

Some v8'ed vids here:

Take care,
