An associate of mine in Belgium said that he has used a Fiat pump in is
application. I posted this on the Vanagon List about a year ago. Someone made
the point that this must then NOT be TDI since it is not computer controlled.
He claims that it put out as much if not more horsepower than his 1.9TDi. He
promptly proved it by breaking 3 Syncro transaxles in one year. I would begin
to wonder it this is the same pump that is being used for this German
conversion.

Unfortunately, my source is presently traveling and will not be accessible
until early February.
