Title: MK1 1.6D N/A Jetta AAZ swap
Post by: zozie on September 02, 2009, 11:59:21 am

I need help with the shopping list. I bought an AAZ/tranny combo a few months ago complete with turbo and and pump. I'm getting the engine and pump rebuilt. I think the turbo's ok, no play in it at all. I'm gonna do the swap after tax season next spring :P. I need some help with stuff I'm gonna need to do everything. I'll get new engine mounts for sure, exhaust and intake manifold..... aaaannndddd, what else?
Unfortunately the donor car has gone to the wreckers RIP
Thanx in advance

I personally find it easier to go in the top but that's just me.

Does your pump have the 2 piece pulley?

It's one piece. Why?
