the 4000 has more engine space than the A4.. remember that the 5
banger fits in the 4K but not the A4.

yes, i should know better than to speak in absolute terms...(been away
from this place for too long) IMO it's an impractical proposition for
a reasonable person... how about that for a CYA statement?  :)

it just occurred to me that there would probably be safety concerns
even if you do succeed in cramming everything in.. how would the v8
engined A4 behave in a frontal collision?

sorry if this went on longer than intended.  i'd hate to be the cause
of a long winded and pointless thread.
