KEP http://www.kennedyenginc.com/Pages/EngineOptionList4cyl.aspx

shows this Nissan engine as an option:
4800 *Nissan SR 20*, '91-94 , Sentra SE-R. 2 liter 16 valve, 140HP.

Of course that engine is likely "miles" away from what you saw but given
the listing, my assumption would be that one would need an adaptor
plate.... if'n the
engine would even fit the Vanagon compartment.

Info is a phone call away?
