will a scirocco motor work in a passat?



I believe the Water Coolant outlet has the bottom outlet in a different
angle than the original 1.8.  The one that connects to the heater coolant
pipe.

The locator pin that holds the head gasket in place  either needs to be
moved  or you can pound it in a bit to not interfere with the head when it
is put on.
