There are lots of posts on here regarding swaps.

If you ask for a step by step that might be a little difficult as that depends on your abilities.

Also after using the search in this forum try http://www.thesamba.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and specifically the 3rd generation vanagon forum.
they are further down the road than us and might have even more information.

Check out the RJES site, he had a basic introduction to subaru conversions in 3 issues of Ultra VW magazine. You havnt said what van you have . My first conversion was 1.6 Turbo diesel with 5 speed to subaru 2.2 with 4 speed, last one 2.1 petrol with auto gearbox to subaru 2.2 with 4 speed manual gearbox. All the conversions ive done use early 90,s engines , so more basic electrics.
