<< Having put up with my excellent running '82 diesel Vanagon for about 4
 months now, I am now about ready to explore other engine options. I am
 tiring of numerous finger gestures and people passing me in double lined
 roads. People in California seem to be in such a hurry with little patience
 for following a diesel Vanagon going a little under the speed limit. I don't
 drive over 65 mph.

you, are one of the lucky ones.  you already have a diesel vanagon - set up
to run a 4cyl inline vw engine...   why dont you just switch to a golf or
jetta Gas motor?   that would be incredibly easy, and very economical, as
there are plenty of inline 4 vw gas motors available in junkyards, to choose
from.  or, just buy a running parts car..

even the Eurpospec conversion, set up to run the 2.0 inline 4 gas motor, is a
incredible improvement over what youve got in there now..
