Does anyone know of a VW tdi transplanted into an MGB? The specs for the 1.9l are impressive. How does this sound "96 kW (131 PS; 129 bhp) @ 4,000 rpm, 285 N·m (210 ft·lbf) @ 1,750-3,000 rpm". In the Jetta, this motor gets 45mpg. That is with that hp and torque. Do you think it would fit under the hood of an MGB?
