Okay, so, due to oversights on my part I ended up with a transverse turbo oil pan when I need a longitudinal turbo oil pan.

I need to swap with someone.

Pan is in good shape, dirty but I can hit it with some cleaner if you'd like, the oil return drain is there and so is the drain plug.

Anyone?

It's a VW Fox that I'm putting a Rabbit diesel in. And since I'm putting a turbo on it, I can't just use the Fox pan.

I'll do a swap with you. Need a longitudinal clutch kit?

Cool deal, thanks.

I intended to use the Fox flywheel, but apparently TDC on that flywheel and TDC on my diesel aren't going to line up?

I have an Audi 4000 TD and I put in the tranny from a Fox.. you can use the 210mm clutch no problem... did you manage to find and exhaust manifold for the swap? You might have fun with the oil filter holder... it needs to be at an angle instead of straight. Anyway good luck with the install.

I have a proper oil filter fitting, pulled from a (unfortunately autotragic) Quantum TD. I have a manifold for the K24 that I'm just going to make an adapter for the K03, still need a flange/downpipe chunk from that to make a downpipe for my system.

Finding a lot of Fox parts, like hoses, water fittings and such will all fit on the 1.5 and help it fit where a 1.8 gas should be going.
