Transmission Adapters

NW Fabrication Works

These adapter features alignment pins in the stock locations to ensure a perfectly centered fit. These TDI adapters are clockable, so you can install the engine at different angles in the engine compartment. This helps with clearance issues and assists in keeping the turbo at the correct angle.

The TDI engine adapters are 2" thick, which spaces the engine away from the vehicle firewall and helps with vacuum pump clearance. The Kit includes the TDI 6061-T6 Billet engine adapter, appropriate 6061-T6 Billet transmission plate, a Hardened Crank Adapter, Denso Starter, and fastening hardware.

These adapters fit all 1.9L and 2L TDIs. Adapters are not transmission specific; they make the back of the TDI "look" like the back of the engine that the TDI is replacing. Most adapters can be used with automatic or standard transmissions 2WD or 4WD.
