Couldn't you use a newer omni and just use those mounts? The rest I think could be bought or stolen from a vw. I to looked into some of this. I also had a 84 rabbit with a half built turbo diesel setup. Loved the motor but hated the car it was in.

Yes, but i dont want an omni at all, i want a 2dr, and i want a 79-82 because i like the style better than the newer ones (older tails, 1/4 windows, funkier trim, etc). So i'm looking for a pretty particular thing.
I wish I had the transmission (T-6060) from my 10 second street Z28 hooked up to both the Neon and Matchbox...with RWD! The Z has a best ET of 10.51 at 131 and gets a hair over 28 mpg when driving 55 mph....1500 rpm is 63 mph! The Matchbox, 23.5 mpg at 55...3000 rpm is 60 mph.
