The Audi V8 was available mated to both the 4HP and 5HP series of ZF tranny. With all the older Land Rover engines getting up there in miles, makes me wonder if an Audi V8 would bolt right in. The early versions didn't have imobilizers so thats not an issue. My biggest worry would be the Sump Pickup. They are not designed for high angle driving.
I've seen the LS swaps with the GM Auto Box and that seems like a sweet swap, but I don't think I'd spend that much money unless it was going into a Defender. And if I did that, then I'd really want a Diesel.
