Is there/has there been a front engine rear wheel drive 1.9 TDI vehicle?? Or any other rear drive VW group vehicle that used an engine with the same clutch/transmission bolt pattern as the 1.9 TDI engine??
I am in the planning stage for a project to put a small automotive diesel engine into a light weight 'American traditional' (i.e. rear drive) car. The VW 1.9 TDI engine fits the bill for an engine I would need. Before I run off and start planning my own adapter to hook a TDI to a rear drive transmission, I thought I would ask what might be available from the VW part bins. I know my knowledge of VW's here in America is less than complete, and my knowledge of VW's European models is next to zero.
