Super cheap aba on ebay

[jdbubb at ix.netcom.com (Dan Bubb)]

For my money it looks like it's out of a MK IV.
MK IV intake manifold.
MK IV big-assed aluminum casting engine mount on the timing belt end.
MK IV aluminum casting for the alt, PS and AC.
I don't see a distributor or the A1 style water pump.
So, as Anson points out it probably does not have the passenger side engine mount bolt holes.
Course I wouldn't know any of this if I hadn't become familiar with MK IV stuff helping Kirsten work
on her engine swap!

have the A1 mounting points in the casting so probably not a good idea unless you own an A2.
