Home of Your VW Bus and Vanagon Engine Conversions!

FAS is located in Harpswell, on one of Maine’s most beautiful island peninsulas.

Specializing in everything Volkswagen since the early 1990s, we have established a well-respected, worldwide reputation for our GEN.V turn-key Vanagon and Bus Engine Conversions along with our meticulous installations.

At FAS we love these vehicles, be it your daily driver or your adventure escape vehicle, we take it seriously and it shows!

FAS leads the way in Keeping it Real!

At FAS, our GEN.V turn-key engine program has been developed to be a low-impact VW factory-like installation and a high performing alternative to the original waterboxer or other non-VW engine conversion options.

In addition to a brand-new zero-mile engine, you also get all new accessories and components –
NEW fuel injection, alternator, power steering pump, AC and complete wiring harnesses!

Nothing but better, best from this team! Come experience exactly why…
