Porsche or Subaru 4WD transmission? IIRC there was a conversion kit meant to use the Subaru 5-speed manual transmission on Vanagons.

Most conversions I have seen either did the standard drivetrain on a subframe or had the V8 where the back seat was.
Months ago, a guy who owns a Beetle converted to a more modern engine and transmission, mounted transversely, told me he got a custom subframe in order to fit the engine and transmission of an Audi A3 into his Beetle.
