Pretty simple:
- source a dead diesel vanagon, pull what you need and ebay the rest
- source a wrecked I4 VW (pick you're favorite)
- spend a few weekends/weeks/months moving things from one to the other
- invest a little more time in working out the kinks

If the planets align, you could even spend less than a grand - but that may be hard! It all comes down to time v/s money.

(so, anyone have a wrecked I4 VW for sale cheap? Must run :)
