A quick chat with Joel tonight after some googling, and I think I have my solution. The 83-86 Vanagon starter has a 10mm deeper pinion depth, so if I buy one of those and lathe it down like my beetle starter...I should be good to go. Will pull the beetle starter tomorrow, and put the motor back in...again.

:P
