Default A6 in an F-body?

I'm not sure how much this has been discussed, but with the new C6's having A6's etc. Is it possible to put an A6 in an F-body? I think it'd be nice to have a stalled A6 car. What do you guys think? If any of the tranny sponsers have any input it would be appreciated too!

Yes it can be done , but theres not much available for this swap yet so you would have to be a pioneer in it

Do you know roughly what would be needed for the swap if the parts were available? Will the tuning be a big issue or is it just a case of loading in new tables for the extra 2 gears?

cost would run close to $8000.00 with the special computer custom converter(only thing is 1500 stall at this time) needed and time to make it work, but it will not work as well as in a production car or truck as the computer is built into the trans
It has beed tried and has not worked well as the transmission is weak and cannot handle hard shifts or any tuning faults
