Had to bump this thread. Wondering how it's going! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

Hi Rick,

It's going slowly, mainly backwards! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) I had to scrap the electric fan setup due to it warping when I added the beather pieces which ment dropping the engine and putting on the stock beather and fan, reinstalled the engine.

Now the altenator is hitting the fire wall as I try to install it. Need to modify something, either the firewall or the engine and trans moubts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

Hopefully next week can have it running again and take it out for another test run.

Okay, I'll see if I have an mount only picture. Are you doing a turbo engine? My exhaust is for the turbo. If I were to do rhis again I would do a built 140 and add EFI. Had to make room for the turbo which makes moving the engine backwards almost impossiable. The Corvair with VW pieces also can get you extra hp but requires machining.

It most likely will be next week if I need to take pictures.

No, no turbo. Probably duel singles.

I am really pulling for Irv. He is as tough as nails battling life's challenges everyday and building a bad ass Vair powered 14teener. Be careful Irv but keep it going when your able.

Thanks, Rick. Need to get it moved shortly as that 4 letter word that starts with an S is coming which means the other 4 letter word that starts with an S will be put on Minnesota roads

Hi Rick, unfortunately this has been sitting way too long. My
buddy came over last weekend and stated we need to give it some time on it. It is now in a 3 car garage that is heated so I do not have any excuses. Although dialysis and my eyesight always are challenges. I'll PM you my # and new address

So good to see you post Irv. Hey! I just had a long conversation with Chappy. His car is sitting for now also. Pull the cover off that bad boy slope nose and post a couple pix. I will give you a call.

Saturday plan is fire up the TV, turn up the heat, manually rotate the engine and if all goes well finish alternator and figures out the turbo oil lines. Charage battery, clean out the old gas, and try firing it up. i'll need to adjust the timing since it appears I'll have to remove the dist to get room to get it in.
. more to come Saturday .
