<VV> Assasination of the Corvair by Andrew J. White

[JVHRoberts at aol.com]

Agreed on all counts. I wonder how things would have turned out of they did  
a more serious redesign of the engine for the 1965 model year... You now, WAY  
better heads, a REAL cooling fan, more room for more stroke, larger crank  
journals, stiffer crankcase, etc... I don't think OHC would have been needed, if 
 the thing had the other stuff... A 300 HP Corvair would have made the 
Mustnag  see nothing but taillights.. <G>

Good  memory! Assasination of Corvair by Andrew J. White published in 1969,  
scientifically refuted all claims against the Corvair.  Remember though  to 
thank Ralph, since GM would have killed the Corvair off much earlier if not  for 
his lawsuit.  It was too expensive to build and noncompetitive  against 
Mustang and others.
