    Newly here, from Fairmont WV

    Hello all my fellow gearheads. Only recently learned of this forum since the Oct 25 track rental event.
    I have a different taste in machines and can appreciate most all well built or thought out projects. I'm done with collecting for now and will maintain and improve almost all my speed machines

    Nice rides! Do you know the guy in Moon with the white Corvair with the 427 and Powerglide? Great guy - and he fabbed the whole swap himself.

    Hello Mr. WarWagon, has your '66 V-8 vair ever gone to
    a dyno day at Timmy's ? When I was a kid I use to drive a
    Corvair way too fast. Amazing my friends with trailing throttle
    oversteer going sideways though turns. I've totaled a few, one
    twice. It's a good thing I'ved slowed down now that I'm older.
    I think your V-8 Corvair is the Bee's knees.
    Btw the other cars are sweet too.

    Thanks for the interest and welcome message 86GT. I did have the V8Vair at Tim's new shop on the dyno bout 2 years ago for a baseline with the original engine combo before I updated it with some 21th century parts.
