My Dad loves those cars.  Swears he's getting over 30 mpg all the time - he
puts in a lot of miles every year.  He keeps a lookout and buys them
whenever there's a good deal, like $800 for the whole car.  Gives them to
whichever of his grandkids is needing a car, or whatever.  If the sedan gets
30+, what would a Vanagon get? :)

My neighbor in NC had a Buick V6 in his Vanagon and it was a pretty clean
installation.  I know the engines are everywhere and pretty low priced.  And
I know Keh has the adapter.  The only down side (that I know of) is that it
sticks up and the engine lid has to be modified.
