                      Found this...

                      ... from here - http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tech...gine-info.html

                      The engine length you quote sounds like one of the newer cam chain engines fitted to the S4, the older units with the cam belt are a bit longer. The weight is about right as I measured mine at 180Kg without oil and water.

                      The approx sizes of the Audi ABZ V8 engine and gearbox are: -

                      Total length (Audi ABZ engine + 01X gearbox) = 1200mm
                      Length of engine (front pulley to bellhousing face) = 490mm
                      Length of 01X gearbox (bellhousing to rear casing) =710mm
                      Max width of engine (across exhaust manifolds) = 760mm
                      Max height of engine (sump to idle air valve) = 660mm
                      Drive shaft position (front pulley to drive flange) =690mm (or from gearbox rear casing = 510mm)

                      No need to bother with the dimensions and tape measure now Bry - I've just been out and done it. It should fit neatly

                          Does everyone have one of these engines?

                          how much weight would it add to have the turbo's on the side of this? always wondered that after hearing/seeing the red american coupe that had this engine fitted (forum members name slips my mind) and what the weight penalty if any.
