Subject:      AW: G60 Corrado engine in a Vanagon?  Can it be done?

A local mechanic installed a G60 in a 90 Westfalia here a few years ago. He took me  
for a ride on the freeway- 85 in second-not exaggerating. Now it was modified , ported, polished cammed and chipped. Nothing this guy does isnt. It had punch-g-force effect. I wonder how long the trans and cv's lasted?

<< Subject says it all.  I have a chance at a G60 Corrado (wrecked with good
engine) and thinking about a conversion for the lumpy '89.  Anybody know if
this is the same type of block as the inline 4 cylinder engines that are
used for vanagon conversions?  Mounting angles?>>

Mounts the same as the position in the Corrado and other A2 family of sedans.
Obviously it is possible. There is one for sale in my Vanagon Cafe
classifieds at:

I think David Marshall at Fast Forward may offer a mounting kit.
