<VV> Interesting Temp sensor question

[FrankCB@aol.com]

        Perhaps they meant to say that there are 2 DIFFERENT temp snap 
switches used, the "normal" one on "regular" Corvair engines and the "hi temp" one 
used only on Spyder turbo engines.  I believe that the LMs did it this way for 
non-Corsas and Corsas, i.e. 95 and 110 hp engines had the "low temp" ones 
while 140 and 180 hp engines had the "hi temp" ones.
