Future TDI converters,

I have done quite a bit of research on this engine and it's usefulness in a
Vanagon conversion. This engine model can only be mounted upright for some
reason. This data was confirmed by several sources including but not limited
to HA-Projekt. It can be mounted in the Vanagon but you'd have to have a
huge hump in the deck to accommodate it sitting vertical. Just thought I'd
save someone the research or anguish. I certainly don't mean to burst your
bubble Bob, you seem like a really nice guy. I'm sure someone can use it, I
just want them to know what their getting into.

Folks,
  After getting input from Karl M the price on the 1.9 TDI has been lowered
to $1000.00 Karl said that was the fair value as you have to get a number of
other components from a salvage yard or Diesel Geek i.e.; wiring harness,
ecu, etc.  This is a tight and well running engine, not from a wreck, 110K,
Mobil 1 from birth, new head and 80-100K timing belt kit from Diesel geek.
Complete engine less fore mention components. In No Va, can ship on pallet
anywhere.

Thanks
