Audi R8 3.6 TFSI and Ford DFV engine demensions.

I've been trying to find some demensions for the Audi R8's engine for some time now. Stuff like bore&stroke, length, width, and the like. I only know that the engine weighs about 390lbs all up, and that the Bentley 4.0 version has a bore and stroke of 87x84mm. Does anyone have such info? And I'd also like to know the similar specs on the Cosworth Ford DFV 3.0 V8, if possible

Apperently info on the Audi 3.6 V8 is very sketchy as far as demensions go- I've been looking for a while, and haven't found anything, even at Audi forums. I guess that I could try to figure out the bore/stroke using the Bentley version of the engine, but that probably won't work. And I'd of though that similar info on the DFV would be far easier to find-I'd like to compare the relative sizes( length, weight, width, height, and bore/stroke).

I also know that there was a scale model of the R8's engine-I saw one on ebay before. Does anyone know of this?

I found the bore and stroke atleast for the R8 engine. It's 85x79. Still don't know external demensions. Maybe someone who's good at it can scale it compared to an actual R8.

Actually, the bore and stroke is 85x79.2. To find the site where I found this, type in "Audi R8 engine scale model" and click on theTKan Audi site that is near the top of the list. The article is in the Items of Interest section.
