welcome to the site Perry - sounds like an interesting conversion, hope you wil be putting some photos etc on Kool rides or the completed conversion section.

Neil c is the man you want to speak to - he is the one who developed the Rascal conversion - whats more he has a split with a scooby engine too. If you cant find him JP and myself have done the same conversion albeit in early bays but with the addition of EPS too.

If you get on the vanfest camping thread in events section you will see a list of all who are going (there wil be more) if you subscribe to the thread then send me a personal mail with your mobile phone number then you will get a list of phone numbers sent to you next wed/thurs of all those that will be there - so if theres a specific van / person you want to see then you can drop a text and find out where they are to have a look as not everyone is displaying.

Hopefully see you there.

Rich

Hello Perry,
welcome aboard, I will be at Vanfest both days, hopefully in the alternate engine display so feel free to come over and have a close look at the steering conversion. Sounds like our vans are close cousins form the same year.
Be good if you can post up some photos, and add it to the completed conversions section.
See you at Malvern.

Neil.
