Just to push your buttons a little...:-)

 I saw recently on the audiworld web site that the fellow who had had audiconnection throw in a 3.6 v8 into his 88 or 89 audi avant is putting it up for sale for financial reasons.  It's supposed to go like lightning and has the utility that you're looking for.
