LOL... for vnt... no oil return line running thru the mount... 
so that provision not needed... guy has some eco diesel screen name.. all i know is he was fighting his oil return line to do his headgasket..
ive seen a 250$ mount in person and the provision required for mk2 td is not on it either.. basically the line runs between block and mount.. and well for a almost flat piece of metal would never be acheived.. the 250$ mount is not flat either.. its got a seam in the middle for the different heights of the block mount area is... its was perdy.. not 250 worth.. IMO...
Not worth 250 maybe, but certainly more than $40

amen to that.. i almost got my account deleted for saying that tho.. so watch how loud you say that..
i was all over how over priced that mount was when he offered it here the first time..

I have a gasser mount... $20 plus $10 for shipping.... I skimmed this thread so forgive me if you already told someone else to *** off with a gasser mount.

I got the said mount from wdkingery yesterday. I worked out a deal with him so I didn't have to buy one.
Maybe I should have posted that I found one.

I have an MK3 tdi and would love to have one of these mounts. Any idea on when you might have these available?

I don't come hear much anymore so sorry for the wait.
I haven't started yet. I have had tons to deal with with my car and home. I hope to do something soon. I have an idea for a jig, but like I said, I haven't started anything yet.
You could send me a pic of what yours looks like from the top. If it bolts correctly then I think it will work for the MK3, but the mount I have is MK2. It is the one the rubber mount goes to, not the hydraulic one.

Here is a picture of one. Not mine because I could not get a good shot but this is really good and shows the clearance issues.
. I hope you can see this as I cannot paste the picture directly.

thats gotta be a TDI, or an AAZ w/ a VNT on it..
drop a VNT on a 1.6, the interference is even WORSE.

I have the engine stand, mount, mount, engine, head, and stuff ready to bolt up. Shouldn't be long now i hope.
BTW that is the early non hydro mount or if it isn't then the hydro mount and the rubber mount must mount the same. 3 bolts on top. I am going to try to get something going on that 3 hole mount in the next month or so hopefully.

early mount is hydro, late mount is solid rubber.

Negative, early is rubber 85-88 jetta. after that is hydro as far as i have seen in parts listings. This is the rear mount, I don't know about the front maybe it is that way.

the hydro mount is the huge round one right? and the rubber one is simply a solid rubber bushing basically..
the early mount was hydro. all my early mk2s have the huge hydro mount. then my later mk2s all have the new style rubber mount.
