<VV> How about the cooling fans from these engines?

[Mel Francis]

Even if these fans were available for $5 apiece, the main problem would be 
their weight, or rotating mass. GM went to great lengths to develop a 
lighter fan, the magnesium version, that wouldn't cause the Corvair's unique 
twisted-belt system to double up on itself, as badly as with the earlier 
all-steel versions, during quick downshifts.
