They will not match up easily. The manual engine has provisions for the pilot bearing, while the automatic one does not (the difference is in the crank). The crank can be machined to accept the pilot bearing, though.

I think the last time this topic came up, it was decided that an aftermarket pilot bearing of the appropriate size could be used.

You should seriously paypal me 10 bucks for the amount of time I just spent looking for this but anyway, here is a quote from Mike that gives the best info. If you're still confused I would pm him.

Picture of the bearing he used as a pilot bearing. I have another customer that lives here in socal that did the tip to manual swap on her B5.5 Passat 1.8t. She too used the same bearing and also went with a CM clutch/flywheel kit.





Info for the bearing
-$19 Pilot Bearing from www.zorkos.com PN#A-6941


If I had the specs for the bearing I could most likely get it right from Clutch Masters.
