 <underline>Audi Conversions

 </underline>I have all the relevent info that people requested.

 Bellhousings: I looked into the Bellhousings, and was going to attempt
 to bring some back, but the Dealer I went to was sold out!...along with
 every other dealer.  They're getting their new shipment this week.  Of
 course I'm home now!...Figures.

 But the BH is only part of the conversion story. Apparently you need
 this special flywheel and clutch so that everything lines up properly.
 Also one needs the unique engine carrier (bushings are stock Audi). So
 the price of the conversion starts to get quite pricey.>>

Actually the bellhousing, flywheel, and engine carrier are not that expensive.
Of course then you have to factor in shipping! :)
Does anyone on the List have experience importing or exporting things from
overseas?
I need some advice on this.
Please p-mail me if you would.
Thanks
