I would suggest looking at Freds TDI swap forum for details, but I'm
pretty sure that even just adapting the various mount points (oil pan
too?) on the '05 engine, would be a major pain. The engine management
electronics would be a huge obstacle too.

Someone else will chime in I'm sure, but a mechanical injector pump
adaptation might be possible. Karl adapts the Bosch fuel injector pump
for the older TDI engines:

check westyventures.com for details on which engine this part can be used.
