RE: A1 TB interchangeability



Years ago I bought a Jetta throttle body for $20 in a junkyard and simply 
had to change the linkage on top to make it work.  Recently, Nate pierce 
aquired that from me but since he is now trying to cram a crossflow motor 
into his MkII he might be willing to part with the TB

Nate?????
