It's my understanding that with this kit:

http://www.foreignautosupply.com/parts-accessories/67-in-line-4-cylinder-vanagon-engine-conversion-basic-install-kit/#.VjAgXyhiEy4

the AEG will fit under the lid. But. I'm about certain this kit lowers the
drivetrain a little.

I recall seeing an image posted by mellowslow on thesamba
showing engine-deck but can't find it. Mellowslow
claims that his FAS AEG fits under the lid.

Some images of his swap:
