If you're going to keep it for a few years, bite the bullet and convert!  I
love the power the inline 4 from Tiico provides.  I just came back from a
family vacation and had a lot of interstate driving.  I ran 80-85 mph
(according to my speedo) with passing power to spare.  If I ever own another
vanagon, you can bet it will have an inline 4 in it!  A lot of money up
front, but well, well worth it.  :)
