Been looking into an interesting one lately regarding a tdi conversion for the Scirocco it is an M/TDI, basically take a later tdi (pre PD) either a 90 or a 110 and retrofit it with a fully mechanical Bosch VE rotary pump .. The one from the Landrover 300tdi seems to be the most common one.

It needs the mounting bracket modified but allows the tdi to run without an ecu / fly by wire throttle and all of the associated wiring issues .

Almost plug and play in an older carb engine car,
