<<If you want to keep you van forever, consider an investment in a Subaru engine. You'll have much more power and reliability, but it will cost $7-$8k by the time it's installed.>>

If I had to drop 7-8g's into my 16 year old Van to cause it to be reliable, it would be time to bail. It would be time to start looking for a dependable mode of transportation without the all the glitches.

Think V-8 power Think Inline 6 power. At a fraction of the cost.

Yea, the Vanagon's are neat, and a bunch of fun to drive alright.

But not at this kinda price tag.
