If you still own it, it's about time for that 2.0 TDI swap.
Can I ask what size the tires are? They look great!
Good to see a fellow Alberta keeping these old vans alive! Kudos from Canmore, AB! We love our ‘81 Westy
I like da music. Are there TABs out there?
Great Video , love the coloured epoxy primer never seen coloured epoxy primer before , you have any details on that please , thanks for sharing
Beautiful...Still considering doing my Vw 2.1 Caravelle conversion 1988 model due to availability of engine part's...Thanks for sharing...
Amazing process
Stinkin’ awesome!
So beautiful.. you have done amazing work.. how long it took you to finish this project?
Wow! So jalous! I would sell all my guitars for a piece like this one!
I have a 1985 Westfalia. It still has the original engine. Am I missing something? Everyone seems so excited that a Suburu engine was installed. But my 1985 Westfalia runs great. Am I missing something?
About 80 HP
5 years later how is she
Good resto! Just curious, but I'm watching this in Jan 2021, do you still have it and how had it held up?
I still have it and it still looks and runs as good
Epic work
A reliable camper van🙏🤟 winning comb9

+ from Latvia. Thank you
Do you do that conversion in Alberta? Where did you find the Subaru engine
Yes it was in Alberta. I bought a 2002 Forester for a good price - bad body, good motor
Hello, please see in my bus 😉✌th-cam.com/video/y2cHzbpU6jU/w-d-xo.html
Hey, I would like to have more info on regards to engine swap. I am here in Calgary. That was a DIY project or someone else help you?
DIY all the way
Nice build!!
Incredible job! Congratulations
Such an awesome job!! Did you change the drums over disc? Thanks for sharing man!
Great inspiration. My 85 will need a new engine soon. While I'm at it ...
all good but please improve the welding
Hi Mark, great job! What make and model is the oil pan donor car?
The engine donor is a 2002 Subaru Forrester
Amazing job, maybe one day, I will have that beauty 🤩
What a beautiful job
Congrats Mark, You have maked a great job. Thanks for sharing this video.
Nice ❤️
Looks great!
I'll take one.
turbo? love the van..
Ugly color
Look at your face.
King Eddy ? On 9th Ave SW ? Great song, Tom.
good job master of the hobby !!! but these jobs are not paid today !! from GREECE
A tdi is a better swap al factory part's mor hp. Better mpg
It's so weird seeing it in USA in Balkan they're quite common to find people always use them for work even thought it's sort of a minivan
totally amazing i hope you get many years of use from your project.
Best way I can say it is WOW. 😎
I've only seen this done on vans. Is it not possible to convert Beetles?
The Subaru conversion was a stupid idea to be true
Nice 👍👏
Wow, what a great sounding engine. Interested in selling?
i recognize this is an old video but i’d love to get in touch, i’m doing an ej25 swap and i’ve got some questions
looks good. it's nice to see someone that takes care of their T3/Vanagon
I loved your video. Saved of course. I restored an '81 AdventureWagen several years ago. Today I bought an '83 Westfalia water cooled to restore. This has given me a lot of thought fodder. I also have a 2001 Outback with the H6 that I may be installing into the Van. Thanks again, great vid!
Looks great.one suggestion tho.Have you considered a Square headlight conversion? They look so much better.Well i think so anyway
and how the gearbox and the motor were spliced there is a difference in the bell (in its height and diameter), how are things going with the clutch release, how are the discs themselves being bigger than the disc from the Volkswagen?
Alberta strong!!
