Is it really worth it? What parts will I need and what costs are associated

Is it difficult to accomplish or can I do it with relative ease? TIA >>
How difficult it is depends on what tranny your using and what steering
knuckles you have. Some of the earlier trannys (pre-84 I think) do not have
enough clearance for the larger flanges, but you can machine the case to fit
them. I believe that the knuckles that were equipped with 90mm cvs will not
fit 100mm cvs, but I'm not sure.
Other than that, it's not hard at all. If you're building a 2.0 16v, I'd do
it. VW thought it was worth the expense for the durability/reliability.
How's your swap going?
