Looking for a 3D model of the audi 4.2 V8 (ABZ or similar) to work with but can't find one. Anyone got any secret hidden repositories of drawings?
Been looking for one of these for ages as ive got a set of plans that i want to test fit the engine into,
Closest ive gotten is really vauge but
The approx sizes of the Audi ABZ V8 engine and gearbox are: -
Total length (Audi ABZ engine + 01X gearbox) = 1200mm (47 1/4"
Length of engine (front pulley to bellhousing face) = 490mm (19 3/16"
Length of 01X gearbox (bellhousing to rear casing) =710mm (27 15/16"
Max width of engine (across exhaust manifolds) = 760mm (29 15/16"
Max height of engine (sump to idle air valve) = 660mm (26"
Drive shaft position (front pulley to centre of drive flange) =690mm (or from gearbox rear casing = 510mm) (20" (27 3/16"

Yup, finally made a decision. Middy monster
cool i have plans for about 5 midi cars just want to be able to squeeze that lovely engine in

It's just a shame the laser scanner at work is too small to fit the engine in
just take it to pieces first

Ha. not with the cost of gasket kits for them!
