Your 68 Bus looks great. The engine really tucks in there nice.
If you don't mind a few questions...

-How much engine compartment modification did you do to fit the engine and trans axel. I have not been able to find any engine dimensions on the net to see what will fit and what will not. I realize there will be some fab work to be done.
-Were you able to leave the gas tank in it's original position?
-I assume you must have upgraded to the Porsche shifter and linkages.
- Did you use the VW Pedals or did you up grade them to Porsche as well?
-My 58 bus has the drive train from a 1971 Westphalia will the front lowered and narrowed beam be adequate with the disc brakes for the new engine and transmission.
Thanks for the info. I am a long way from a Porsche dealer and there are no Porsche guys in my area so this help is invaluable to me.
Do you have more pics of the fabrication on your bus?

Thank you all for the help
