Chris,
      I have two Vanagon Syncros.  One with the stock 2.1L and
one with a home make swap to an I4.  I have done a side by side
comparison of the to.   Sure the I4 buzzes a bit more, but I use
the stock Vw Audi/Fox mount witch are made for the exact
weight of the engine.  I have no complaints and would recomend
this in a hart beat.
                                     Eric
