O.K. I have seen a Subie conversion, I am impressed!  But what about the I4
conversion. Is it easier than the Subie? I am very concerned about making
the wire harness. Are there any web sites that I could look at! What year
VWs had them? How would I ask to price them locally (the subie engine we got
was a lot higher than was quoted on the list). I am not planning to convert
"Sammy", she will stay the same, I like taking my time to go camping ;-))).
I am still looking for a Vanagon with blown engine in Nebraska to start
accumulating the parts to start another Vanagon project ( Wife says ok only
if she gets the converted Van). So all you experts on I4 Conversions please
give me some directions on harnesses etc. I am fairly underfunded so I want
to do most of the work myself! It may stay a while I am not as young as I
used to be!
