Hi again;
I agree the major advantages in using the audi are less chassis modifications. However, if you do change the chassis, the alfa can be in good position and centre of gravity as well. It wouldn´t be higher than the original dino engine, since you have to add the height of the gearbox there.
I came across the saab box as well. I also think it´s a bit old.
I don´t know the lenght of the audi engine and box, but I´m quite sure it can be fitted, as i know someone who did fit it to dino replica, although not much space left!! I´d say it´s shorter than the renault for sure
This way, with longitudinal mounted engine, you may be following the route of the very first dino, the "Dino competizione"!
