    Well, this thread has provided one good thing, Graydon informed us of a
place on the west coast that makes the adapters for the 016 transmissions.
 All we need to have is a bit better taste when it comes to the swap.  Chevy
engine?  No Way !!!    928 engine?  Yes.  Audi V8 automatic block?   Yes  944
turbo engine?  Yes.  Northstar V8? Yes.   Heavy Iron American V8 of any sort?
 No.  
     Sorry to go postal on the subject, but I would love the power and
perfomance of a V8 under the hood of my UrQ.  With the short supply of 5
speed equipped V8 audis out there, I know I'll need to make a choice other
than that.
