Re: VW wiring-HELP!
On the main engine plug, we tapped into the wires, leaving the VW chassis-side terminal intact, just in case. (if you get another vanagon and you want to take the 2.2 with you)

I am in the process of my conversion and I am having trouble figuring

1) Do I cut the vw wiring out of the picture except the ones I need?
2) Do I completely take out the VW

Re: Air conditioning
Any reason why any clutch would use a voltage other than 12v? I guess its possible.

Re: subaru turbo @ 210 hp
Please note that in Australia the Legacy is marketed as "Liberty". More
senseless badge-engineering. It's not as if there's another vehicle sold
there as Legacy.

I am having a problem locating motor mounts for my 90 Legacy 2.2

Re: Air conditioning
Well, remember that the Vanagon compressor has an electric clutch. I assume
that the Sub compressor (has an electric clutch too, right?) will have to be
mated properly to the Vanagon control

Re: Shortened Oil Pan
Just a thought, but at the the time of sectioning the oil sump, if
they could rotate the lower half by 90 degrees, the dipstick would

Thanks Warren. I am an interested candidate. I have a spare oil pan ready.

Re: Shortened Oil Pan
A reservoir would help for hi-rpm. For sidehills or hard cornering, you want a deep sump. For me, and likely any vanagon, the reservoir would be fine! Remember, these are vans, not SVX.

Re: Shortened Oil Pan
I think that would work fine except it would be difficult to drain all of the oil. Possibly an external, large capacity filter housing from a diesel truck, (with a filter either in place or not)

Re: Shortened Oil Pan
What about adding an external oil cooler to increase capacity? Would that
make a difference, or, is the idea that you want more oil floating around in
the sump?
