The block will be the same but heads, manifold, cam, intake etc are different from E series to AU (and even some of the AU series had changes too).

Your best bet would be to get a 220kw engine out of a wrecked AU2/3 sedan and drop that in. Provided your car came with a V8 it's a straight fit - if yours is a 6 you have some work ahead of you.

yes, conversion it is, slowly mind you, i just thought as i can find e blocks ok but not au's, anyone done a build thread on v8 convrsion? i know i need the following: Rad, power steering pump, loom, ecu, bcm, rack, engine mounts, tranny and full exhaust, what else have i missed? i don't have A.B.S would i need to retro fit this too?
