Subject:      Vanagon Zetec Conversion Kit? - Not the Turnkey

Since so many folks seemed to be expressing interest in our conversion in KIT form, we started talking about the possibility. Our main reason for not offering a kit, was because support hours are so much higher, and in a small company this can be extremely difficult. However, since we are also a very tech saavy small company, we could take advantage of various online support tools to avoid ever answering the same install question twice, and rapidly building the support documentation and knowledgebase as well. In any case, I need to gauge interest level again. Please contact me off-list if you have any interest in the Zetec conversion in Kit form. The kit is still more complete than what is out there, but we'd leave sourcing the engine, wiring harness, alternator, power steering pump etc, to you (I can give a full list of what would be needed when you contact me). The kit would also be at least a couple thousand dollars less. If we can get 4 manual transmission folks on board in enough time, I think we might be able to make it happen.

Let me know!

Jim Akiba
