I don't think there's any issues with finding old engines, there seem to be plenty around for VWs, not sure about the 1800 though as it is rarer.
The van is currently tax exempt, would putting a modern engine in change this?"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
Thanks to everyone for the advice, my DH has bought a 1910 cc big bore transporter engine so will get a bit more power but not as expensive as a modern engine (though still not cheap though :eek:)"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

I wouldn't put in modern engine. Getting rid of the lovely sounding flat air cooled engine. You could go for a full mega squirt kit for increase reliability fuel and power while still having that nice air cooled engine.
Have you checked out the volkworld forum better asking here there than here.
Practical classic did a Hillman imp with mega squirt.0
