Hi, I'm selling this engine, I agree it is a big project but do-able,
see the fast-forward automotive conversions being done up in Canada and
the wiring harness plug-and -play conversion they do if you send it up
(including a key id for the 2000). As this one came with the harness,
ECD, some instruments, etc. it should be a reasonable project if a kit
like Fast forward is used. However, like many good things VW it is
costly and difficult. On the upside, if you can do a nice job think of
what a great combination it is-- or just comission fast-forward to build
one for you.

FYI Everyone,

This engine (at the minimum) will still need an instrument cluster, key
reader, key and EDC needs to be reprogrammed to start and run. Be very
cautious about buying a TDI engine. I'm going through TDI purchase
headaches myself.
