986 5 speed with drilled vss hole and 2mm spacer
No AC and electric powersteering.
Since I have a 99, I'm wondering what to do about my return style fuel system? I guess I could just run the feed line and cap the return near the tank?
Also, the 40v come with this goofy built in oil/coolant heat exchanger/oil filter thing. I'd like to delete that mess and just run an external oil cooler and filter. Anybody tackle that? Doesn't seem to be an off the shelf solution for the later v8s.
Thanks all. I'm getting more amped about this project.

In order to run TI Dave's cradle, you'll need to run the A6/S6 style engine mount brackets, which include the oil cooler/ oil filter housing. The A8/S8 mounts will not work.
The 4.2 engines in the A6/S6 run a return style fuel system with a 4 bar FPR on the fuel rail, you should probably keep the return style fuel system.
Update on my side, I have about 15 hrs into the wiring and think i have most of it sorted. Communicated with the Audi ECU via VCDS last session and hoping for a first start soon.
