1st question: Does anyone know of a 5 speed rear wheel transmission that will bolt up to a VW diesel engine?

2nd question: Anyone got any suggestions as to a 4 cylinder diesel and 5 speed rear wheel transmission setup that might fit and that I can get parts for? I have an 81 Isuzu 1.8 diesel, but can't find parts for it.

Small diesels, that is. Onan and Yanmar do as well.
