Just wondering if anyone has seen an Audi engine in a 914. I read about a race car that had a turbocharged Audi engine but it was a tube frame and they basically took the entire driveline from the car (engine, transmission, axels.) I see that Audi has a couple of interesting powerplants - a twin turbo V6 and a 350 hp V8 - but noticed that Kennedy does not list the Audi brand in their list of adapter plates. Anyone know why this is? Are they too heavy? Too large? Too expensive? Just wondering because I think these engines would make decent power and have a natural kinship with the Porsche brand like VW.

KEP sells the adapter for the SBC to Audi 5000 Automatic. Somebody in LA had a Automatic V8 914. The Audi box uses Ford C4 clutch packs and brake bands.
