There was also a Porsche 6 conversion. Very clean. Bellhousing is
a direct bolt up, and tin was fabricated by welding together the
inner part of the Porsche tin and the outer part of the Vanagon
tin. If the owner hadn't pointed it out I wouldn't have noticed
the welding. Dry sumped and about orig ground clearence. Two
K&N filters sticking up a bit above deck height, but this could
probably be relocated if it was in a camper installation.

Snapped some pictures, but they are still at the photo lab.
