As someone that moved from a vw engine in my 77, there is a lot involved. First off a 923 tranny was used. It is basically a 915 with different gearing, and a different clutch arm - push style. Then you have to get into the wiring as well as the special bracket to hold the engine and finally welded mounts to do so.

Dont do it. You are better off buying a used no history good numbers 3.0 and selling your eng as a core. You'll be out 7-8 depending on how much you can get for your core engine. Example - good leak down numbers engine 10500. Sell your dead engine for 6 as a core. You're out 4500 if you do the swap yourself. Add 1000 for anything you may want to do while trans it out, clutch, seals, etc.
