I'm new to the forum so stopping here first. My son and I are in the middle of swapping a TDI into his 04 XLT Manual. We have a ways to go but we're excited!

Nice...

I'd like to do one of those TDI swaps. I just get hung up on the costs. That and I don't have as much energy as I use to. Maybe you make a build thread so we can follow along?

Welcome to TRS...

I can try! I'm still working out some details concerning wiring but hope to have it figured out before the adapter gets here!

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Welcome to TRS! Good luck with the swap. Keep us posted.
