I don't recall that article. However, I do recall an article in European Car Magazine (formerly VW/Porsche Magazine). In the January 1994 issue, they detailed a conversion performed by a place called Knightwerks in Honolulu, Hawaii on a Canadian spec Crewcab Transporter. They performed the installation with parts from MSDS and decided to use the Vanagon transaxle. There is a mention of using exhaust pieces from MSDS due to ground clearance problems but heating was not addressed. Of course this vehicle was in Hawaii. I hardly think they worry about heating there. A quick review of the MSDS website yielded no reference to heating. Nor are there any photos of the headers.
