I have a 97 2.5 Tdi in my Syncro. With the South
African 5 cyl bellhousing and engine crossmember
http://www.southafrica-parts.de/na/  it fits--with
some trimming.  The accouterments have been
challenging, and I'm still working on the rest of the
drivetrain.

They're under "Tom's Photos" but you'll have to join
the "TDI Conversion" Yahoo group to see them.
