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) . |

Another crazy conversion, V8 twin turbo power this time also mid engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yikes.gif) Where does the sink go? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Exactly! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Love your Subie-Westy Marc! Very nicely done! BTW for the V8 folks - IIRC it was this or last week that evil-bay had a V8 Westy conversion FS. EDIT - here> http://www.ebay.com/itm/171688402437?force...E:SS:SS:US:1120 No Affill, just part of the discussion here. And there was also a video of a fully blown V8 drag Vanagon video on UTube dragging out the the desert somewhere, that I saw last year sometime, but have lost the bookmarks when my HDD drive died. Crazy fast!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yikes.gif) .... but not a practical idea for most on this thread. Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
