I don't think so, it would be much cheaper to buy another 1997 A8
If that's the case, just buy a 2000 or newer and be really happy you did. And you will never have to take a head bolt off.
The guy doesn't even have the Bently. A new car will be better and cheaper. For Sure.

Results of cylinder leak down!!!
Its hurt! Going from front to back on passenger side:
1-14%
2-11%
3-85%
4-45%
Driver side:
5-11%
6-90%
7-90%
8-90%
Looks like I'm gonna put an engine in it.That's ok anyway. I'm gonna keep it. I DEFINITELY am going to do a timing belt and everything else on the new engine. Anyone have a step by step to an engine swap? I doesn't look that hard just wanted to see if there is any thing to look out for,tips, tricks etc.... Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks,Aron
