[Vwdiesel] 1900 in a A-1... was RE: Mail Order Long Blocks

[Dana Morphew]

It mostly fits as though it were a 1.6, but it sits a bit taller.  You'll need to
lengthen your downpipe arrangement to clear the steering rack.  I've probably
forgotten most of the details, but there's nothing insurmountable.  I have no
accessories to worry about.
