Malcolm,

I can highly recommend Thomas Hann (HA Projekt).

http://www.ha-projekt.de/

He's been doing diesel conversions and new product development for a long
time.  I've been to both his place and to Bernd Jaeger's, and I would take
my vehicle to Thomas for any conversion work.  Not that Jaeger is a poor
choice, I just prefered the way that Thomas does business.

He can even set you up with a Tiptronic transmission...  or a V6 TDi...
Lots 'o Euros...

Cheers,

Jeff

Jim:  I wish I had the guts to offer my Dehler Syncro 16"  as your Swedish
TDCi Ginny-pig van.  But then I might have the ONLY one in existence and
who'd work on it after you left??

With a VW 1.9 TDi, I'll hope that it's plug-n-play anywhere in the world.
I'm still planning on having someone in Europe do the conversion (gas to
diesel) this fall.

Do you know of anyone to recommend other than Bernd Jeager in Germany?
Thanks   Malcolm

We
might
get
the
chance
to
go
to
sweden
and
convert
a
vanagon
to
a
TDCi
to
see
for
ourselves
if
it
can
be
done..
but
it's
just
talk
and
mostly
dream
at
this
point,
there
is
no
timeline
for
us
even
doing
it,
and
it
wouldn't
actually
in
the
end
make
financial
sense
from
the
business
or
customer
point
of
view,
but
it
would
be
cool.
