From memory, I think the Eurovan motor makes only 140HP, but with more torque low in the band than the car version.  I would get a manual for both vehicles to see if there are any physical mounting differences, and I would expect to have to buy an entire motor including injectors, intake, MAF and ECU.  I bet the cams are the biggest difference between the motors.

Subject: [vr6] EuroVan engine swap

What are the differences in the VR6 in my 1999 EuroVan and the VR6's

I need to replace my engine and thought it might be easier to find an
engine from a Jetta or Passat.

TIA

... That would be correct. ... The intake manifold is probably the biggest difference for two reasons: packaging and the low end torque thing. The cams are ...
