The measurement should come any time soon, hopefully this week. I was there today to pick up the carcas, but the only engines with flywheel where high up. So he will pick one down and measure.

So, on to the carcas. As said, I was able to pick it up today. It was a 03 S, so has the right wiring loom and ABS unit for me to use. Also all cooling pipes (thicker than base) and radiators are on. Brake system is complete (I have the calipers as separate parts with me).

Some parts will go back in a few weeks and will be replaced with my own. Having them on the car now was easier for transportation and ensures no hoses are cut etc.

Rough plan is to transplant ABS and all associated parts coming winter. I might put the S brakes on as well. In parallel I intend to source my V8 and start the mechanical fitting part. Also I could move to electro hydraulic power steering.

For now I am finishing the car as it is. Final wires for the radio etc. will be soldered tomorrow so I can put the interior back together.

Picture to show what I picked up:

Hi Marc,
It's great to see you moving forward on your project. Are you still planning to use an Audi V8?
