Many thanks to all from a longtime lurker, who in the throws of a mini mid-life crisis stumbled upon this form in my search for a fun toy.
My original plan was to do a swap on a N/A I almost bought {literally had the cashiers check in hand when I first found this site} but after researching here and on the "other form" i quickly became aware it was beyond my time and patience. So a 96 TT with just 25k on the odo. was added to the garage last fall. I think without the depth and detailed knowledge on the swap here I would probably be still be busting knuckles trying to sort it out.
Instead the tops are off and the twisty MN lake roads have a frequent visitor with a big smile pasted on his face. Thanks to all !!!!
