Subject:      1.9 ltr TDI, bolted to Audi 5000 quattro transmission.

Does anybody know if the VW TDI 1.9 ltr will fit on a 87 Audi 5000 Quattro trans. I've been bitching for years to VW for not sending us any of the same 4 wheel drive VW's available in Germany, like Golf's, Jetta's and Passat's. I've told VW to send me a new Passat TDI with 4 wheel drive, or even the AWD Golf's and Jetta's. I'm tired of waiting. So when my 5 cyl motor quits, I'm installing the 1.9 ltr TDI. With a 21.5 gallon tank in the Audi, I'll be able to go 1000 miles on a tank of gas, pretty cool huh. Current Passat TDI owners are getting 800 miles to a tank with a 18 gal. tank. Is there an adapter plate available? Thanks, Michael. 87 syncro 87 quattro
