After drilling the 4 holes for the rear engine carier (about...2 IN farter back), filling the coolant system... Hans told, let's fire up! The harness was still on the groung??? 1 minute to temporarily plug that well made harness (thanks John!), and Vroummmmmm...... I'm sorry if i will offend some purist or I4 lovers... but let me tell you that this boxer engine feel at home in that Vanagon engine bay. Simply unbelievable. Oh, i forgot, the powder coated red intake/valve covers... i have "rights" on it... he he, i nice touch by Vanaru. I will take pictures of John van "Deep Blue" intake... to nice. More later.
