Is conversion possible and what will be necessary to do conversion?

It is possible, but it will be cheaper to sell your TDI and buy a petrol engined Mk4.

You will need:
Engine
Gearbox (TDI gearbox ratios will not work on a petrol motor)
Exhaust
Management system to run petrol motor (petrol version engine bay wiring harness, ECU, instrument cluster, etc)
Fuel pump in the tank
etc etc etc

Why would you want to do that ?

Current rides: 02' Jetta 4 1.9 Tdi, 99' Isuzu KB 250 Dle(Faithfull aka slowmo) Mercedes Benz ML 270Cdi
Ex rides: 82' jetta 1.5 Gls(sold), 88' jetta Clx(sold with tears in my eyes)

Rather buy a good quality part that will last then buying a cheap part that won't last.
