I will be the first to agree, when talking about the higher hp cars-140s and 
turbos, BUT 2-carb PG's can be very trouble-free.  Granted, some people 
accuse Corvairs of leaking oil (we know better) but they seem to have more 
places to leak oil than, say, a 64 Impala with a 283.  You may think the 
extra zoom is worth the effort...ya pays yer money and takes yer choice...
