2.0l 16V Swap Page?

[rfkellner at snet.net (Rick Kellner)]

Jeff, if it even happens, it could go into my 84 8v or my 87 16v.  If I
start with the 8v I will need a 16V transmission, however the basic car
is in better shape than the 16V. 
	Now all I have to do is convince the rest of the family that we
need another VW in the yard.  Actually, I have a big yard....

BTW, any experience with the Motronic conversions?

Thanks for reminding me about the exhaust - the one thing you'll need
that I
haven't mentioned is the Scirocco 16v exhaust manifold (which I happen
to
have for sale) and a suitable downpipe (TT at a minimum), unless you're
planning on going to a header like I did.  You still haven't clued us in
on
what kind of scirocco you're dropping this beast into...   :)

Once you have that and all the other goodies from the Passat engine bay,
it's a direct drop in. Get new A1 motor mounts while you're at it.

Getting the fuel over to the passenger side requires the fuel line that
goes
all the way back to the pump, but I have NO idea if the passat fuel
line's
length poses any difficulties....

To be cont'd, I'm sure.  JT
