Other than the Eurospec 15 degree kits, the only other "kit" available for
the ALH and other later style VAG engine blocks that I'm aware of is from
FAS in Maine.  Their approach would allow you to install the engine over at
50 degrees, since it uses a custom oil pan and engine mounts.  I'm
installing an ALH at 15 degrees by using a Passat oilpan and stock mustache
bar, along with a stock LS 1.8t Passat engine mount.  There's really no
easy or inexpensive way to mount these engines in a T3, but I love them, so
it's worth the effort
