100% yes if it came from an A1 chassis car. The output
flanges are 100mm - all Mk1 Sciroccos came with 90mm
flanges. Some of the earlier wheel hubs may need to be
swapped out for a later model to accomadate the 100mm
axles. 

You could also swap 90mm flanges onto the 9A and use
your 90mm axles.

Many many close ratios will fit. Any 020 tranny will
fit as long as it has the rear mounting studs. Some
trannies used on A2 cars don't have these. Rule of
thumb - if it was ever fitted to an A1 chassis car
(Scirocco 1975-1988, Rabbit 1975-1984, Rabbit
Conv/Cabriolet 1980-1993, etc) - it will fit.
