>According to the article which compared the 1990 V8Q and the BMW M5 in

They tested the V8 against the 300E and a 535 not the M5.

>either Road & Track or Car and Driver back in 1989 or 1990, 

It was Road & Track, November 1989.  It's sitting in my office :-)

>the V8 used a pair of Golf GTI heads (a good example of object reuse:). 

The V8 head design was based off the GTI heads.  A GTI head is not a bolt on,
if it where I'd be looking to install some aftermarket heads myself :-)
