I have an 81 cabby that i would like to install a 91 na diesel eng in. I realize most just change out the ip  bracket anduse the rabbit style engine front mount. I was wondering whether anyone has opted for using the jetta's type of frontmount by welding in a receiver.It seems that the earlier eng. front mounts took a lot of the engine vibration, requiring change out, and vw decided to alter i am guessing as an improvement. also, I own all the nec. parts.Next, the cabby is missing the fuse block and i am not finding in print which years might interchange. I am open to modifyingthe jetta fuse because, "i own it"
Lastly, I have many 91 jetta parts, sheet metal is the red, was it Cordoba red? It had some under carriage rott so, first it becamea convertible, then a bi ped. for a while the back half was a shop love seat. front clip and doors, dash, harness though not complete-it might be missing a fuse block.
