It will "fit" - but getting it running will take a hell of a lot of work - Likely to need the following from the pd130 donor

Dashpod
Ignition barrel and key
Wiring looms
ECU
engine mounts
gearbox & driveshafts

basically, you need a whole wreck to get all the bits from.

well that cost would buy an awfull lot of goodies I'd stick with it, a 130 would only be a starting point, and it looks like you already started!!

And don't forget the all important 6 speed gear knob, otherwise you'll only be able to use 5 gears, and then there'll be the fuel pump in the tank aswell.

LOL - I actually did have to get the 6 speed gearbox base and linkages for my conversion as the 5 speed one was putting the 6 speed box into all the wrong gears!

Yeah - I guess the fact the PD uses injector pumps, and not a traditional fuel pump like the VE engines will be a factor. I expect you will probably need the complete PD fuel tank from the donor car. I would also try and retrofit the undercar fuel cooler.

Personally i wouldn`t bother at all. By the time you get all the donor parts and piss about fitting them to a registered 110 TDI which will then be worthless you could buy a good clean PD130 and put new mods on it and not have any hassle.
