Does anyone know what kind of oil pan they are using? I would have some concerns leaning a stock 2.0L inline on it's side far enough to clear the deck lid. If they are using the stock cast Aluminum pan from the diesel vanagons, that's ok. If they haven't addressed this and are using the original pan, they are going to be in for some lubrication problems. Overfilling the pan by a quart or so will solve the problem of the oil pick-up being above the oil level in the pan, but will cause it's own problems. These hydraulic valvetrains like their oil!
