Gerry: I am contemplating engine conversions for a Vanagon camper; my preference would be a reliable, water-cooled inline or v-style powerplant that can be adapted to the VW 4-speed transaxle (I am not opposed to installing a Porsche 5-speed). I want to use the existing water heating/cooling hookups on the late model Westfalia. Are you familiar with anyone who makes conversion kits for anything other than a Porsche 911 engine, and what is your opinion of the success of such conversions? I appreciate any feedback,
