Hi George,

Were all of the Audis' the "Audi" pattern or were some like the early 80's
4000 the VW pattern?

Does anybody make a VW to Audi adapter?

Can you get different R&P gears for the 924?

Thanks,

The 924 bellhousing uses the Audi 4/5/6-cylinder pattern, which is
different from the VW gasser/diesel 4-cylinder pattern. An Audi 5-cyl
diesel or TD or TDI will bolt right in, but the VW diesel or 1.9TDI
won't match up.

Gearing changes are also necessary for any 924 diesel swap...or else
your nice little 2.0L I-5 Audi TD will be turning 4000 rpm on the
highway. not good.
