ok, im making a list of vanagon engine conversions that fit below the stock
vanagon engine lid.. WITHOUT rising up above the stock rear deck level.
  they can be from mild to wild..  also list ground height clearance from
lowest point of engine or engine carriers, to pavement, with stock 14"
tires.
