For the moment I have a VW 2.8L V6 that is far from an upgrade, but makes similar power to the 97-99 2.5s. I don’t expect to complete the swap, but work through the process as an education.

If I get anywhere interesting I'll start posting. For now, I'm working my way up to 25 posts on the Passat Forum so I can sell off the VW parts in their classifieds:
