I have a 1975 Auto Kombi 1800 engine type 003 gearbox and am considering a Subaru engine for quiteness and smoothness. I would appreciate any information on this conversion and pictures and if possible I would like to view a bus with one in. Ps is a bus with an 1800 Subaru engine more powerful than the standard 1800 engine.

Wayne, the mechanic at VW mechanical in Buderim on the sunshine coast, fits subarus to kombis and has it down pat. sounds and looks good and neat. you can contact him on 07 54454440 works weekdays only , not open on the weekend. cheers, fish
