    I located an 89 audi 5000 nearby for $500. Looking into swapping the 10vt into my 89 quantum. I curious if the motor will swap right in and if i can be hooked up to my existing trasmission. eventually i plan to do full drivetrain swap and my my non syncro quantum awd. thanks in advance for any help, cant wait to get it home and get started.

    The 10vT will bolt up to any 5cyl trans FWD or AWD, so no problem there. The wiring of the 10vt can be tough, not impossible by any means but detailed. Now making your car AWD, that is HUGE TASK, just look for a QSW you can find them fairly cheap, Not a huge market for them to be honest but the are fairly rare. But looking for a QSW would be easier and cheaper even if you had to trailer it home, then an AWD swap

    It is still fairly detailed, switch, just look at the Audi 4000 Quattro turbo swaps, it is pretty intense, i have looked into it my self, that is the plan for my QSW also
