Subject:      83.5 Westy engine swap

I am contemplating an engine swap into my 1983.5 Westy (auto). We are
now
45k into an AVP rebuild that is working fine, but would work much better
in
a lighter vehicle. I'm more interested in keeping a VW engine in the
Westy,
and keeping the engine lid where it is. Budget is also a consideration.
This seems to limit me to a I4 and 50 degree mounting, but I seem to
remember other options on websites I can no longer find. I would
appreciate
any info on available kits, I4 v. I5, etc.
Thanks,
Scott
