Fred Porter wondered:

I would imagine the acquisition itself would be near impossible if you reside
in the US, without circumventing a few customs and EPA laws(unless the engine
is available in the US to begin with)

Some, yes.

We had talked about this a couple of weeks ago on an earlier year bus. The
most common conversion "package" seems to be the Weber (which I have on my
79 Westy.  I don't know what is available for waterpumpers, but I would imagine
that it is probably a Weber conversion as well.  The problem with the Webers
is that there is not a heat riser which makes cold weather driving a pain
in the ass to say the least.
