have one, done. I didn't do the swap but I have been all over/through it by now. If you need me to look at mine for pics or whatever, let me know, I can tell or show you what was done on this one. I like the combo, think it may be one of the better swaps for inexpensive and effective. I have about 30k on this one in a couple of years and I like it..When or if this motor (92 golf, jetta, cabriolet 8 valve) gives up, I can replace it for about $300..Mid 20s for fuel consumption, probably around 120hp with a mild cam and very easy to work on. I have never found a website like the Subie-Vanagon list..but then there really is no need...not much to mess with for the VW>VW motor swap and the inline gassers are simple. Plenty of "tuner VW" sites to show you how to get more HP. Keep me (us?) posted on how it goes for you..Not much out there about this particular swap.

hello Don Thanks I am pretty good at this stuff so I don't think it will be too hard to do. Pixs would be nice if you could take some for me. i gpt an 85 weekender that didn't have a motor and I was saving all this stuff just for such a vannie. later mark d **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
