Video clip, 2.7 with webers in my 69 bus

I posted this in another thread but you may not see it there.
I got a email asking to post a vid clip of my 69 VW Van with the 2.7 conversion for everyone here to see (and hear) It's only 30 sec or so but this will give you a idea. I'll post a better one when I get a chance.
Enjoy!

Hahaha! That's awesome! Did you decide how your gonna finish those D90's? My vote is for color matched w/ polished lip.

That is the coolest. Can you say tow vehicle?

Can you quickly outline the conversion process or direct me somewhere that has the information? I assume its buy a clutch/flywheel adapter, run some fuel lines, power some ignition, buy a motor mount and you are set.

Did you do brakes as well? suspension?

Can you put AC in an old bus?

Keep a eye here as I will be loading more vid's soon.
http://www.airspeedparts.com/video/video.htm

}{arlequin, It was 2780lbs before I did some interior changes so I'm guessing 2840lbs or so?

87coupe, I bought another set of the D90's in chrome with some black accents that I may try.

jpnovak, You can see the entire swap at my site below.
It was a fair amount of work and diff year buses will need some other mods but this will give you a idea. As for AC yes some buses had it and it could be adapted.
