WHOA!!!!!!! I am pretty sure that I missed something here, but to whoever
is trying to get a 5spd trans into their Autobox V8 is DREAMING!!! The
block from the auto V8 is different from the block that they put into the
5spd V8's. The 5spd block will accept any Audi 5spd, but the auto block
will NOT. I have got a bare auto block and I when I tried to mate it to my
UrQ 5spd, they were so far off that you would be hard pressed to drill the
block to accept it.
In short: You MUST have a car that already had a 5spd in it.
