    If your Corvair is leaking oil like that it's because it has been neglected. You don't need to remove the heads to replace pushrod tube seals.
    Viton seals have cured that problem. I also painted the tubes with white VHT paint. No oil leaks.
    My lady has a 2006 Subaru and it leaks like a sieve.

    I always wonder why in 46/48 Ford had flip up doors hiding the gas cap. In 1949 they had the gas cap exposed again. Then in 50/51 went back to flip doors. Did they make an "opps" in 49?

    Pertronix took care of that clearance issue for me twice.

    That Stinger has some great racing history. Very special Corvair. I believe Tim Allen owned that car for several years.
     
  7. he did and it was at the auction in Florida last year. I wish I could have bid on it, it looked like a lot of fun.

    Chevrolet should have kept the “stroker” 283. Just so everyone can use the word more...:p
