Why have I been saving these message I do not know, but I have been.
Maybe it's the '87 Subaru with 178K on it I have with no engine work.

Last year someone did a Subaru 1600 into their Vanagon.  Posted 
quite a bit of details of his conversion.  Contact him at:

I think he posted this stuff on a web site too.
