Subject:Re: [WetWesties] Heater for a vanagon

I'm not interested in buying it, but I ran into a similar
problem with my BA6 when I wanted to install the 22.5 SA gas
tank in "Pokey" my old air cooled van. The SA tank was too
long so I never ended up installing the tank.

That said, my discussions on the list led me to the
conclusion that the BA6 COULD be relocated under the
passenger sliding door, you could do the same...

Thanks,
Chris
