Anyone else here find surfing thesamba/vanagon pages as interesting as I do?
Threads about Cross US and North to South America road trips, $35-$50k syncros and loads about waterboxer cooling (good to see we all share a common interest then)

Just came across a thread referencing these guys

http://www.bostig.com/

who appear to have developed a fitting kit etc for Ford (sorry) Zetec engines into our totally unsuitable hosts.

Whether you think it is just sacriledge - or just plain wrong - you have to admit they have some good points.....

Did a search on here and found very little so I assume no-one has followed this path?

Theres a clip on utube on a supercharged Zetec vanagon. Going that fast is a bit too hair raising for me. Wouldn't feel safe. It even keeps up with an impreza towards the end...
