gas engine out, diesel in
 

I have a 1990 Jetta diesel engine and a tranny from a 5 speed manual. I want to put it in a 1991 Golf with an automatic tranny. Is this possible without major modifications to go from manual to automatic? What do I need to do to make this work, or would it be easier to just look for a VW with a manual tranny? Or can the diesel engine go on the gasoline atx tranny?
Also, I have heard that the MK2 Vw's were made from 1985 to 1992, can anyone confirm this is true?
