<VV> RE: Corvair fans

[Steven R. Marti]

Sounds a little ironic.  We have Corvair guys looking to use Porsche type
fans to improve cooling and eliminate the stock fan problems.  Meanwhile
there are VW guys adapting Corvair fans to their engine to improve them....

Here is a very interesting  thread from  The Type 4rum  , a  site similar to
this  &  corvaircenter  that  is focused on VW Type 4.      Someone from
Texas is building a high performance Type 4 engine  and has found that the
Corvair fan set up  will work nicely with his dry sump set up and optimize
both cooling and packaging.  It mentions that someone else had  previously
done it.  This could start the 914 crowd  driving the prices of cooling fans
up to crazy levels like the Corvette people after telescopic columns.  Could
N.O.S. riveted flywheels be next?  Here is the link and there is one picture
showing what  he's going to use:
