Any updates on this great build? I am in the planning stage of the Chevy conversion of my 79 Westy.

Re: Just another Chevy 4.3 conversion
Well I got my 4.3 (carbed) and am checking with a local VW guru about going with chromemoly 1st and 2nd gears with a .77 4th in my 091. otherwise it will have to be Rancho I think.
