If anyone is considering doing an inline gas conversion on their vans,
this message may be of some use to you.

I'm upgrading the exhaust on my van with a 4-2-1 type manifold from a
dasher. I have the manifold and am having a shop custom bend the duel
pipe downpipe from 400 series stainless. The shop does pretty good work
and I've talked them into producing a second unit for their own
reference so others can just call them up and order what they need. I
think the price is going to be under $200, maybe even around $125. When
finished the pipe will end running horizontally with the rear of the
van, just about where the oxygen sensor is on the wasserboxer exhaust.
From there everyone is on their own. Let me know if you might be
interested.

Also, another listmember graciously "donated" his supply of diesel swap
parts to me as he no longer needs them. I have to pay for them at some
point soon or sell them for him, but until then I know a guy who is
capable of reproducing or possibly modifying the stock oil pan from an
inline engine to also act as an engine mount. Thus eliminating the need
for the cast aluminum pan from a diesel vanagon. The engine mounts
should also be a piece of cake. Then coupled with a KEP adapter plate
and the inline conversion should be within the range of most anyone. Let
me know what you think if interested
