There has been a lot of interest in this swap on Vanagon.com and
other Vanagon related sites.

This SPECIFIC GOAL AND FOCUS of this site is to share REAL EXPERIENCE
with the ACTUAL PROCESS of performing the conversion, in particular,
to expand upon and refine the instructions given by Kennedy
Engineering in their swap kit and to share tips and solve problems
for those who are in the process of performing the conversion (like
me)or who have completed the job and may be experiencing problems.

ALSO VERY VALUABLE IS THE ONGOING EXPERIENCE OF THOSE WHO HAVE
PERFORMED THE CONVERSION AND ARE LIVING WITH IT FOR SOME TIME.

LINKS TO PICTURES AND DIAGRAMS ARE ESPECIALLY NEEDED.

I researched a lot of conversions and drove several before deciding
on the Subaru. Driving experience was the deciding factor for me. I
drove three vans with 2.2l engines as well as Eurospec and 5cyl Audi
Quantum conversions.

I purchased a '90 Syncro Westy with blown engine and have bought a
2.2L engine and the Kennedy kit. I have removed the Wasserboxer and
am now in the middle of the wiring mess. I will post more on my
experience later.

For now......please sign in and share your thoughts, experience, and
issues. VETERANS PLEASE SIGN IN AND HELP.

I and a recent convert of the subaru vanagon engine conversion. I recently installed a subaru legacy 2.0 litre engine in a 1989 transporter. I an experiencing fuel cutting consistently as the temperature gauge reaches the middle. The car runs smoothly and has very good power until the temperature gauge reaches the middle. mechanics have been unable to diagnose. Anyone who has experiences such a problem?
