Saw this over on Pelican....these guys seem to be very committed to RELIABLE swaps... love the passion! The Focus engine is only 130 HP stock but pretty cool. Which way does the Zetec spin?
Bostig Just thought there are a lot of Vanagon fans here who might like to see this. If you have never done a swap you might think the complete kit less engine, ECU and power steering pump is expensive @ $6k to which I say (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) . |

I'll be driving 'Eileen' up to the Seattle area sometime this summer to pick up one of my Honda Mini Trails I left up there. I'd like to check out your conversion, Marc.
But then again, maybe I shouldn't ... the 1200 mile trip home with an anemic 1.9L would probably be pretty miserable (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |
