I plan to use it for HPDE, but not race. Meaning it will be subjected to some of the same stresses, but I won't feel obligated to run the car past reasonable limits like I would if I were racing.
I fixed the other post to eliminate some confusion with those comments.

Yeah, you would've thunk it. Didn't happen until I stopped and put it in 1st. I pulled on the shifter as hard as I thought I could get away with, without breaking it and it would not come out of 1st, so I drove home 10 miles on the highway in 1st. I was happy to have a tall 1st gear that day. I ran it up to 6k, pushed the clutch in and coasted for a while. Kept doing that all the way home. With the engine off, it still wouldn't move. I got under the car to see if I could find anything remarkable and noticed how hot the transmission was. Once it cooled down, all was good. I removed that heat exchanger and it never happened again.

That's why I have the A6, it's like Stephen Kings "Maximum Overdrive", you never know what's going to happen next and it shifts on its own.

Does this swap move the location of the wheels in the wheel well? Using a C6 cradle, C5 arms, LG coil overs. Or is that only with C6 control arms?

it his own way.
You can use any good gasket material. I use ones like Yama-bond, Honda-bond, Permatex Ultra gray.
You can clean with whatever you like but don't leave any residues that can break down your new fluid.
I prefer to do a final clean using a light acid/water mixture, rinse thoroughly with water and dry.
