Terry, there is a place up there also you can call is RetroRoo. He is really familiar with the vanagon conversions. He used to have a westy.

Hi, It looks like I'll need to get a good or rebuilt power steering pump for an SVX. Does anyone have one available? Thank you, BILL

Thanks, I planned on using the higher torque value. Just did the timing belt on my wife's 04 Impreza and the torque value was 130 ft lbs. in the Haynes manual. I also remember reading a discussion on

Forgot to mention the year of the motor is a '92.

In the not-to-distant future, I'll have a RMW SVX package for sale with 145k on the motor. How do y'all think I could sell it for? And I want to thank you all for the help in figuring out how to get

Matt, The earlier Subaru specification for the torque (69 to 76 ft lbs)was far too low - the later manuals call for 120 ft lbs. I always use 120 ft lbs and never use lock tight at that torque. The

Then my plan is to get a new crank pulley bolt and maybe a little lock tight.

Do you know if the donor has to be a manual car ifthe vanagon is manual, or can you use an automatic car?

I'm doing the RMW kit as well. Actually I'm picking up the parts on saturday. I'm super excited! Wish I had some more information for you, but it has to feel good knowing others are in the same boat

Hi, I custom built my system for my SVX Syncro (My SC fell apart). I used 2.5" with the basic design of the SC system. Added 3 (yes, three) Magnaflow mufflers (no cat); one 19" under the drivers side

Quite right - I forgot the vanagon wheel torque was so much higher than the cars (87 ft lbs) I guess it's all up to what was being used to "loosen" the bolt and how much force was exerted.

Anyone have any experience with the used EJ20 engines that can be purchased through Foreign Engines, Inc? They are telling me they are the same hp as the EJ22 and all my externals will bolt on just

Hi! I have a home designed twin pipe exhaust system. One "cat" on each side after the headers, a 180 degree turn, one 2" full flow muffler on each side and then a cromed tail pipe. /Eric 2012/3/28

It appears I am on the verge of installing a stainless small car header,probably going to add a stainless 2 1/4" catalytic convertor (a small spun one), and I am curious what others have used for a

Crank pulley bolt torque according to repair manual was only 72 ftlbs. I torque it to 120 ftlbs, making sure pulley stays put. Lug bolts/nuts 125 ftlbs Leon
