VW Diesel transplant

[Tony Hoffman]

The 4000Q has an 016 as well. It's the 80's and 90's that have the 01A. The
4000Q only has the 5/6/8 cyl pattern on it's trans. That is one transmission
that I'm incredibly familiar with.

The TDI can be run with a 1.9TD pump. Several diesel listers run them, I
know one guy has that setup in a Scriocco and one has it in a Cabriolet.

It's legal anywhere you don't get caught ;-P
