Re: 2.2

["Aaron Patton" <apatton1@airmail.net>]

Umm....the 2.2L turbo listed on those pages refer to a Subaru engine on the
first link and a 5-cyl engine on the second link.  Neither of those will be
even remotely similar to the Dodge 2.2L.  The only Dodge engine that I am
aware of that is easily transplanted into watercooled VWs is the 1.7L 8v
that was but in Omnis and Horizons in the early '80s.  However, you can't
use those engines with A/C, because they don't have the same drilled and
tapped mounting points.
