     I presume that you don't fit the engines horizontally opposed, so how 
     do you go with oil pick-up ? Do you re-baffle the sump and change the 
     oil pick-up to suit the engine sitting in the other direction now ?
     
     Also, (I don't know anything about kombi's) does these engines fit 
     into the Beetle's as well ?  Not that I'm considering to fit one in a 
     Beetle, but if it fits a Beetle, it must also fit a Fiat 850 Sport 
     (and this I'd like to fit one in).  Which brings me to the next 
     question, does the engines bolt directly to the VW gearbox ?

Cliff,
     
Which motors are the EJ18 and EJ20?  Are these flat-6 motors? 
Your mention of the Kombi conversion was interesting, to say 
the least.

The EJ motors are 4cly Horizontally opposed.
EJ18 (1.8) was 16 valve SOHC(per bank) can out in Australian Liberty(jap 
Legacy)and Imprezor(spelling?)
EJ20 (2.0) was 16 valve DOHC (per bank)(quadcam) and came out in turbo and non 
turbo.
     
The flat six has the same bell housing (so I am told), and I have heard of 
some people putting them in, but with the output of some of the 4cly units you 
may not need it.
The conversion was a fairly large job. (I did not buy any conversion items, or 
subcontract out anything except the exhaust system)and you would have to be 
very keen to do it.(or plain silly :-))
