[Vwdiesel] Vwdiesel Digest, Vol 75, Issue 21

[travis gottschalk]

Agree. Hyd clutch, accel pedel, shifter, the computer brains, motor mounts, axles, coolant components. It costs money to put in any of the older ones and time and once in it would take more time and the old parts to put back the old things not to mention likely welding, cuting and grinding. Choose a vehicle, save the money and put it in when you have enough saved. You would likely need a larger exhaust as well from the stock in the vehicle you are putting it in. Then any sensors and senders need to be hooked up somehow. Then any gauges needed.

> I have the TDI motor from the '96 Passat and I want to put it in something.  My original plan was to stick it into the '78 Bus, though I'm starting to wonder if it is somethig I can afford to do right now and am considering moving it to the '92 Cabriolet for now, at least kinda temporarily.

> Any thoughts on how difficult it would be to put the Passat's cable-actuated trans in the Cabriolet?  Does someone make a kit to do such?  I'm aware that the TDI motor would bolt to the Cabriole trans, but I'm sure the TDI trans is geared better, seeings how that is what it was made for.
