I have not installed an S&S on a Vanagon, but on my '74, the S & S system
matched up perfectly and went on like a dream.  That is until I had to
replace the heat exchanger, and the new exchanger was off by 1/2" from the
old one.

Of course your mechanic has to claim it was a "B" to install, cuz he has to
account for all that labor he charged you.
