In my opinion, the Audi 5 cylinder engine is a really good choice for
Double and Single Cab Vanagon's since they already have the raised
deck. Karl Mullendore got creative when he installed one in a Westy (2
wd) by extending the engine mounts (and hence lowering the engine a
inch or so) and modifying a metal engine cover slightly to accommodate
the distributer . It was a pretty clean fit, though I'm not sure it
would work on a Syncro. Of course, Karl was working with the Overland
kit (of which he is a distributer).
