Hey, Craig:  I agree with you.  My 19 year-old son has a '91 Volvo 740 with
the turbo and it has run like a champ for the year and two months he has had
it.  It just passed 200,000 miles andnever failed to start even last winter
when it was -14 degree below zero for a week.  We have joked about putting
one in a Vanagon, never thought somebody actually did it!  It seems like the
230 block is too long for the Vanagon engine bay?
