 The transmission in my 87 Westy is about to go. In searching for a
 rebuilt, the only one I've been able to find is a five speed. But, is
 there such a beast? And will it work with my stock 2.1 engine without
 modification?


 The seller wants $500 for his five speed, says it's in good shape, but
 offers no guarantee.


 Advice? >>
 The transmission that you have found must be syncro trans. The syncro trans.
has a extra low first gear. The rest of the gears are the same as the standard
vanagon  transmissions and fit the same also.  If you found a true five speed,
meaning an extra gear after fourth gear, I WANT IT.  Michael.
