Depends. If you are only taking the engine down to a short block, and not splitting the case, then the standard HF engine stand will work fine.
If you want to split the case, or mount the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate with the engine on the stand, you need the VW adapter. A VW adapter is only ~$40. Zach |
