use a 1.5 td flywheel box and shafts.. you will need to grind abit off the back off the 1.7td block to fit the mount.. i would use the 1.7td down pipe is its a bit bigger bore.. and have a custom exhaust. you want to be at least 2 1/4 bore if your running high boost.
you will also need to use a 1.5 oil filter beacause the 1.7 one gets in the way
