Thread: corvairs anybody?

I had a '62, but not for long. The engine, trans and rear suspension went into my '61 VW. I changed the engine to a turbo model and did the chrome myself. In it's last incarnation, I was running 27 psi of boost with water injection. The engine is still being used, back in my home town but without the turbo.

I also made the carburetor manifold from a solid block of aluminum, on a Bridgeport mill in my high school shop. I ran a Rochester 4-barrel to start with, but later changed to a 500 cfm 2-barrel.

cool bug man!
