When into the 144's I always had a spare.... for parts!  (those were
old even back then)

So installing a SOHC "Redblock" Volvo engine into a Vanagon appears to
involve the usual items one would deal with on a DIY swap: exhaust +
engine carrier fabbing and interfacing the electrical.

I wonder if the oil filler cap on the valve cover gasket is higher
than a 4" raised engine cover?

Wiring may be a bit more complex. Seems some might have OBD2.
