Smart to keep them all 4.2. That consistent size instills confidence in the brand and motor. No matter how much the motor has evolved.
Bumping this, can anyone confirm the r8 4.2 is the same. Aka would it be a suitable replacement?
Wow old thread bump FTW haha
Yea, well why start a new one when there is a thread that already has some of the info here. This isn’t AZ ;D
It’s mostly the same as discussed abov but not likely an easy replacement for example. Enough differences. I’m guessing.
Looking at the quote from Arin, it seems there might be a typo; 11/04-06/08. Shouldn’t that be 11/03-06/08?
^^ Speaking of the BHF.
I only see one r8 list on there, 07/12- now. No BYH r8 engine ???
Looking to pick one up.
Yup the only one we want is not there lol. There’s an rs4 tdi for some reason too…
What happened to the 2.7T swap ? Did you finally figure it out and are coming back to your senses? 
Right, differences being, intake (easy swap), exhaust manifolds (easy swap), dry sump oil system. This is the one I question, I’m wondering if the blocks are exactly the same and it should still have provisions to swap in an oil pump. Or adapt the dry sump system.
Lol, that is finally moving around under its own power. I’m considering evolving that project into something else.
why are you wondering?
All 4.2L’s VAG ever released. (MPI, FSI and TDI). Anyone want to take a crack at listing out which is which?
