I've gotten a turnkey proposal from  Rocky Mountain Westy to install a
2.2L Subaru in my 85 Vanagon. Here is the proposal:

I really like the 2.2L and I think in a 2wd van with a stick and
stockish size tires, I think it is plenty of power. We can do that
conversion for $12,000 with the rebuilt motor.

This seems to be high from what info I have seen. For example, the file
PRICES.XLS on the Yahoo subaruvanagon site shows the costs for a 2.3L, a
2.4L, and 2.5L to be $7,110, $8,210, and $9,610 respectively.

Am I missing something?
