I was reading this newer thread about S4 V8s and realized I hadn't updated here.
He passed on the FL one and picked up one from IN or OH instead. He's been down with it from college a couple times helping his dad fix things on it, including the alternator or belt(?) the other day which required pulling the front clip.

He loves it, been working for a few months now with assistance. We shall see.
You don't actually pull the whole front clip. There's a super easy way to unbolt the bumper/grill/headlights/radiator all in one piece and slide it forward into what's called "service position". It's berkeleying genius for any work on the front of the motor and it's dead simple to do.

Don't. Just don't
That's a slogan looking for a product. Like a Nike from a parallel universe

Some people like doing extra work, I guess.
Next time you break a Miata transmission, save the case bolts. They are hugely long M8 fasteners that are perfect for sliding the lock carrier forward on.
