Hi Gang...it's been a while, but I'm back... Sold the diesel project Westie (someone came along with the cash I wanted and caught me in "the mood"...) So I'm venturing back into the Vanagon arena with a decent 86 Weekender body, engine basket case, and I'm wondering if anyone has ever stuffed a CIS 1.8 in there against the automatic tranny...or do I stick with the 2.1 and chip it up... I have the diesel oil pan/mounts/pump/manifold etc for the 1.8, but adapting it to the tranny is an issue... Has anyone done this successfully? Thanks for any input... Den 77 Westie 'Sondancer' 86 Weekender 'Sondancer II'
