I'm trying to mount my 2001 Alh Tdi at an angle of 23.5 degrees in my syncro Doka.
a/ because I dont have to swap the petrol tank
b/ because it has a vnt turbo
c/probably numerous other reasons
d/the mounting holes are in the wrong place to use the standard diesel mounts
e/I can keep the larger clutch from the petrol engine
f/I can make up an adaptor plate to use the tdi starter
I have seen a front mounted support that will fit any Tdi, including the later pd engines on another convesion. It fits over the timing belt cover and allows the engine to be mounted on a new crossmember from behind rather than from underneath the sump
The part number is 038 199 207 J
Does anyone know what car this is off please, as I would rather find one down at the scrappy than pay out a wad to Mr Vw

Thanks, I thought my engine was out of a golf, but it didn't have that piece on it, strange! Looks like a useful site too, think I shall use it again
