[urq] V10 in to an ur-q

Yeah that should work great!  Don't forget you'll need to add a second
cruise control set up for the "other" bank of cylinders or else you'll
run in circles on cruise.

This must have been sent April 1, but I never saw it....

Looking for BTDTs on swapping a neu S6/S8 V10 in to an ur-q.
 
Will it bolt up to the 016 or should I plan on retaining the flappy
paddle gear box? Is the dash a bolt in swap or will I need to 
modify the cover? I might be able to modify a taxi gauge cluster to make
it work? Will the MMI work with the MAC02? I am 
concerned here, because the donor car is an early '83 with 
fuse box inside. 
 
I plan on retaining the CIS and adding a second distributor on the
drivers side, will this clear the radiator? Does someone have a cheap
MAC02 I could buy? I don't mind if the pressure transducer doesn't work
in boost.
 
I have heard the engine mounts bolt up but there are issues with the
starter wires needing to be lengthened - this could be a show 
stopper. Also some say I have to go with G60s with this swap, is that
really necessary?
 
Alternatively I was thinking about losing the back seat and going with
the Lambo layout, but I don't think the kids would be happy walking,
comments?
 
Cheers, Mike
