[Vwdiesel] States that allow conversions? WAS: TDI Passet 4 motion

[82 Diesel Westy]

Still that way for NJ, no smog testing yet.
I think it will be coming soon by my van is 25 years
old now, so I will just have to register it as
antique.  I am not sure what would happen at DMV if
put a 1.6TD in a gasser Jetta A3??
I ran across a guy years ago that put a 1.6na in a 87
sirocco, they were never diesel.  I suppose he was
driving it legally?
