Well well. My time to shine. Yes it would be easier to find a parts car for really cheap. You can find a banged up car for $200-$300. For my swap I got a TII for $100. You'll need the following off the car.
S4 N/A parts listed
flywheel w/pilot bearing and clutch
transmission
drive shaft
starter
clutch slave cylinder
clutch pedal
dust boot cover and shifter ****

Everything will bolt right up with the exception of the crossmember mounts which you'll have to figure out. There is a forum member who sells brackets here and I used them. PM if you need more info.

I don't think he would be attending to cheer with the rest of the girls. If they weren't underage I'd be there all the time.
