<VV> New Cast Aluminum Corvair Cylinder Heads

[J R Read]

If you want to put a thermister into a "Monza" 140, you need an adapter to 
accommodate the threads on the thermister.  I have a Corsa dash in my Monza 
and a Spyder dash in my Rampy.  The head temp gauges work in both.  So do 
the "boost" gauges - but those never go above zero.

Can't comment on turbos - never had one.

 Turbos and 140s have different threads in the left
